02Original (English) — PGA TOUR
Team golf never fails when it comes to drama-filled action. The 16th edition of the Presidents Cup is no different.
For the first time in Presidents Cup history, the International Team held a lead (10.5-7.5) on foreign soil heading into Sunday Singles.
The Brandt Snedeker-led U.S. squad won Thursday's opening Four-ball session, 3-2, before the Internationals answered with a Friday Foursomes sweep, 5-0. The Americans clawed back Saturday morning, winning Four-ball 2.5-1.5, before the Internationals closed out the day by winning the final two matches of the afternoon Foursomes for a 2-2 split.
The Internationals eye history at Medinah, chasing their first Presidents Cup win since their lone victory in 1998, with a tie in 2003 being the only other blemish on the Americans' 13-1-1 record. The 1998 victory came in Australia, so if Captain Geoff Ogilvy's squad can notch 15.5 points on Sunday, it will be their first win on American soil.
Twelve Singles matches, worth one point each, will decide the Cup on Sunday.
