Sunday, 11 October 2015 11:41

The United States have won the Presidents Cup for a ninth time in 11 meetings, beating the International team 15½-14½. USA held a one-point lead going into the final day's 12 singles matches and edged home at the Jack Nicklaus Club in Incheon, South Korea. Bill Haas, the son of captain Jay, scored the winning point by beating home favourite Bae Sang-moon. Sang-moon needed to win the final hole to halve his match with Haas Jr, but conceded after following a poor chip into the 18th with a missed putt. The 29-year-old will now begin two years of compulsory military service in South Korea.
