The Presidents Cup

The Presidents Cup is an exciting PGA Tour event as the two teams battle for international bragging rights!

Bet on 24 elite golfers as they try to take the prestigious Presidents Cup. The biggest names in golf are set to compete in the 2011 Presidents Cup at the Royal Melbourne Golf Club in Australia. The U.S. team, captained by Fred Couples will take on a group of international all-stars, captained by Greg Norman. Members on the International Team are chosen based on Official World Golf Rankings through the 2011 PGA Championship, plus two Captain’s selections.

The Presidents Cup is played according to the rules of “match play” as opposed to “stroke play”. Each hole counts only as a point. If the golfers score the same score on a hole, the whole is halved and the golfers continue to the next hole.

The U.S. Team will base its selection on earnings from the start of the 2010 season through the 2011 PGA Championship. And just like the International rules, the Captain will be able to choose an additional two players. The United States team has dominated the President’s Cup during its short history, claiming 5 titles in 7 appearances.

The President’s Cup does not award prize money to the winners. Instead, the tournament donates the funds that would have been used for the winners to charities determined by the participants. Over the past years, more than $10 million has been raised by the Presidents Cup for various organizations that help the less fortunate.

Woods clinched the victory with a 13th-hole birdie to close out a 6-and-5 thrashing of Y.E. Yang, who came from behind in the final round to top the world No. 1 in the PGA Championship in August.
