If Canadian fans have trouble getting loud at the Presidents Cup, South Korea's Tom Kim is going to help pump them up. Kim got into some gamesmanship with world No.

1 Scottie Scheffler during the first round of the elite international men's golf tournament on Thursday at Royal Montreal Golf Club.

Despite Kim and fellow South Korean Sungjae Im working hard to get under the skin of Scheffler and partner Russell Henley, the Americans earned a 3-and-2 victory as the United States took a sizeable 5-0 lead over the International team. "When the crowds are with us, it definitely helps when you can get loud," said Kim after the round. "I think it was a little too quiet today being on home soil. "I wish the fans would have helped us out a bit more, especially being in Canada.

I know how much they love golf." The Presidents Cup is a biennial best-on-best tournament that sees 12 American golfers face 12 players from around the world, excluding Europe.
