Schauffele seals Presidents Cup win for US
The United States won a ninth successive Presidents Cup with a 17.5-12.5 victory over an International team who failed to pull off an unlikely comeback on the final day in North Carolina. South African Trevor Immelman's side had given themselves a glimmer of hope after claiming five of the eight points on offer on Saturday to cut the deficit to four at 11-7, having been 8-2 down the previous day. However, it still left the hosts needing only four-and-a-half points to retain the trophy at Quail Hollow in Charlotte and that was achieved when Xander Schauffele holed the putt which beat Corey Conners one-up. Jordan Spieth led off with a 4&3 win over Cam Davis to make it five points from five this week before Patrick Cantlay beat Adam Scott 3&2, Tony Finau defeated Taylor Pendrith - who was two up through eight - 3&1 and Sam Burns halved with Hideki Matsuyama.
