United States Leads 11-7 at Presidents Cup

The United States took a decisive lead in the Presidents Cup with an 11-7 advantage over the International team after winning both the morning fourballs and afternoon foursomes sessions, despite delays caused by thick fog. Patrick Cantlay secured a dramatic 1-up victory alongside Xander Schauffele against South Koreans Tom Kim and Kim Si-woo, with Cantlay making a crucial birdie putt in near darkness. The Americans, needing just 4.5 points from the 12 singles matches on Sunday to clinch their 10th consecutive victory, showcased strong performances from world-ranked players, including Scottie Scheffler, who finished his match with two birdies. The International team's captain Mike Weir maintained the same pairings throughout the day, which did not yield the desired results, leading to their struggle against the Americans. The stage is set for a potentially thrilling conclusion as the U.S. looks to reinforce its dominant historical performance in the rivalry.
