The Presidents Cup is one trophy the Americans own, for two decades and counting.<\/p>\n<p>It didn\u2019t feel like another rout at Royal Montreal, not with 20 of the 30 matches \u2014 nine of them Sunday \u2014 not decided until at least the 17th hole.<\/p>\n<p>The score suggested otherwise: United States 18 1\/2, International 11 1\/2.<\/p>\n<p>It was the largest margin of victory on the road for the Americans in the Presidents Cup \u2014 even if it was just north of the border \u2014 and they won for the 10th straight time.<\/p>\n<p>Xander Schauffele, a double major this year, was tapped to lead the way and delivered four straight birdies to set the tone in a 4-and-3 victory over Jason Day. Patrick Cantlay was bogey-free with seven birdies, three on his last four holes for 3-and-1 win over Taylor Pendrith.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps fittingly the clinching point came from Keegan Bradley, who had gone 10 years without competing for the U.S. team and already has been appointed <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\"><a class=\"Link AnClick-LinkEnhancement\" data-gtm-enhancement-style=\"LinkEnhancementA\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/ryder-cup-usa-captain-bethpage-9e683a9210c24a938ac8282213e9d5aa\">the Ryder Cup captain<\/a><\/span> for next year. He thought he might never play in another cup, and he was mobbed when he won over Si Woo Kim on the 18th hole.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe talked about taking care of business today, and we all went out there and did it. I was just lucky enough to be in that spot in the day, but really a meaningful moment in my life,\u201d Bradley said. \u201cThe last time I played in one of these I was the clinching point for the Europeans in the Ryder Cup. Fast forward 10 years later, and I got to do that today.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cReally something I\u2019ll remember the rest of my life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For the Americans, it was old hat. Max Homa finished the scoring with his first point of the week, a 2-and-1 victory over Mackenzie Hughes. They won four of the five sessions, with the Internationals picking up most of their points in a 5-0 shutout Friday in the foursomes matches.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese guys get along so well, but as you know, they can flat play,\u201d Furyk said. \u201cWhen it got tough, anytime the Internationals put some pressure on us, they played their (tails) off for us. I\u2019m just so proud to be a part of it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Internationals needed everything to go right at Royal Montreal. All they could manage was a good fight, more tight matches, but still no cup.<\/p>\n<p>Their only victory since these matches for players from everywhere but Europe came in 1998 at Royal Melbourne, so long ago that Tiger Woods was making his Presidents Cup debut. The U.S. winning streak dates to 2005.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA lot of these matches were so close,\u201d International captain Mike Weir said. \u201cIt\u2019s disappointing not to get a win. We put our team together to win this thing, and when you don\u2019t get a win, it\u2019s disappointing, but a lot of great things to take away.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Americans made a winner out of Furyk, the captain in France five years ago when Europe won the Ryder Cup. This is a new team \u2014 a young team \u2014 free of distraction, filled with confidence from having won every Presidents Cup since 2005.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cReally the matches come down to just some special moments,\u201d Furyk said. \u201cFor one reason or another, these guys usually play loose in the Presidents Cup, they let it fly, and we\u2019ve been able to win some crucial points, make some crucial putts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Furyk sent out Schauffele in the opening match, and the cool Californian made five birdies in eight holes to seize control early. He holed a 45-foot birdie putt on the opening hole with Day in close birdie range, took his first lead with a 25-foot birdie putt on the par-3 fifth and never let his foot off the gas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll of our 12 guys can compete,\u201d Schauffele said. \u201cMy goal was just to set the tone, get red up on that board as early as possible, and I was able to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sam Burns was the only player who went unbeaten this week, halving his match with Tom Kim. The 22-year-old South Korean looked to take a 1-up lead with a tee shot into 3 feet on the par-3 17th. Burns hit pitching wedge also next to the flag for matching birdies.<\/p>\n<p>Kim has been the spark for the Internationals with his fist pumps and the way he poked Scheffler with his celebrations in the opening session. He said the tide would turn at some point, and the 22-year-old South Korean firmly believed it would be Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>Just not this Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you lose so many times, I feel like there\u2019s always a story where people come back. Winning doesn\u2019t last forever,\u201d Kim said. \u201cThere\u2019s going to be times where lip-outs are going to go our way. A few breaks, a few bounces are going to go our way, and that\u2019s going to make a difference. We play great and we keep falling short sometimes, but I\u2019m not losing hope.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Internationals picked up a point in the battle of Masters champions when Hideki Matsuyama took down Scottie Scheffler, and Corey Conners delivered an easy win over Tony Finau. But they were trailing 11-7 going into the 12 singles. It was never going to be enough.<\/p>\n<p>Now the Internationals have to wait two more years until the 2026 matches at Medinah outside Chicago.<\/p>\n<h2>___<\/h2>\n<p>AP golf: <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\"><a class=\"Link AnClick-LinkEnhancement\" data-gtm-enhancement-style=\"LinkEnhancementA\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/golf\">https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/golf<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script>\n  window.fbAsyncInit = function() {\n      FB.init({\n              appId : '870613919693099',\n          xfbml : true,\n          version : 'v2.9'\n      });\n  };\n  (function(d, s, id){\n     var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];\n     if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;}\n     js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;\n     js.src = \"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js\";\n     fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);\n   }(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/presidents-cup-royal-montreal-usa-international-c2b0d1ce3624d1f6db56d422b3bbe1e5\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MONTREAL (AP) \u2014 U.S. captain Jim Furyk raised the gold trophy before a team that dressed in red shirts that filled the scoreboard early with red scores.
