Americans running away in the Presidents Cup

Hoffman was one of US captain Steve Stricker’s two captain’s picks for the Presidents Cup. “Everybody on this team had some good momentum, had all been playing well, and we know how tough the International Team is and what great players they have”.

Jason Day and Phil Mickelson shake hands after their match was halved.

He’s better at golf.

Hoffman said the two of them were “biting at the bit” after not having cracked captain Steve Stricker’s rotation Thursday.

Mickelson tweeted “When you can take a selfie with three US Presidents, you do it!”

After hearing that, I could not wait to see what was coming and was just hoping that the Mickelson-Kisner duo would do something to either win a hole in a big way or clinch their match. That’s what it’s about.

The Americans have won six consecutive Presidents Cups and five of those by three or more points. Clinton has been the only sitting president to attend the matches, on Saturday at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Virginia in 2000.

PGA TOUR RADIO: Saturday, 9 a.m. -6 p.m.; Sunday, 12-6 p.m. I didn’t grind and shed a tear because I wasn’t on the team or anything. Palmer died a year ago Monday. If Trump attends, he will be first sitting USA president to do so since Clinton at the 2000 event outside Washington.

The result leaves Scott with more foursomes defeats, nine, than any player in Presidents Cup history.

The three former POTUS happily posed with players and wives during the opening ceremony.

“It was one of the most exciting moments of my life, standing there”, Schwartzel said. He hit a wedge to 2 feet on the 15th for a 2-up lead, only for Grillo to drill his tee shot to 2 feet on the par-3 16th. “But I get that I can’t dance”.

The first pairing tees off at 11:35 AM on Friday.

The issue has been magnified since Trump last Friday said any National Football League player who protested during the anthem was a “son of a bitch” who should be fired.

JERSEY CITY-Only five of the Presidents Cup’s 30 points were awarded on Day 1 at Liberty National. Both teams made bogey for the halve.

Nick Price, the worldwide team’s captain, acknowledged another tough day, but insisted, “We’re not laying down”.

The Americans got off to a flying start with Justin Thomas and Rickie Fowler giving Hideki Matsuyama and Charl Schwartzel a towelling, 6&4. “You have all your teammates there and all the American guys, and the match is on the line”.

The comfort level was different for some players. “To get that first point was awesome”, Chappell said.

Even without confirmation of a Trump appearance, Monahan relished the idea of three former presidents together on a golf course. “It’s pretty awesome to have them there”.
