The United States reclaimed the PGA Cup from Great Britain & Ireland in a hard-fought set of Sunday singles. Don Yrene and Chip Sullivan earned the USA's first points of the day, and Chris Starkjohann clinched the victory as the Americans pulled out a 13 1/2 to 12 1/2 triumph.
The Sunday singles were a microcosm of the entire PGA Cup competition: Quality golfers contesting a series of tight matches, many of which could have gone either way. GBI won the day, but fell just short of retaining the Llandudno Trophy.
In his final PGA Cup blog entry, U.S. Captain Roger Warren explains how impressed he was with the heart and courage of his players, as well as the classy way the Great Britain & Ireland team handled themselves all week in the heat of battle.
Falling just short of retaining the Llandudno Trophy is very disappointing, writes GBI Captain in his final PGA Cup blog entry. But the week was very special for everyone, he said, and everyone did everything they could to try to win.
Heading into Sunday with a two-point lead has the U.S. Team optimistic, writes Captain Roger Warren in his PGA Cup blog. But, he stresses, no one on the squad underestimates how tough it will be to seal the deal in the closing singles.
Of course he'd rather be ahead by two points than behind by two, writes GBI Captain Gary Alliss in his PGA Cup blog. But, he notes, both he and his players know they can make history with a come-from-behind victory on Sunday.
Sparked by a highlight-reel shot from Butch Sheehan Saturday afternoon, the United States forged a two-point edge over Great Britain & Ireland in the 23rd PGA Cup. The competition will be decided in the 10 Sunday singles matches.
Team USA owns a 9-7 lead after Day Two of the 23rd PGA Cup, thanks to victories in three of the four Saturday afternoon four-ball matches. George Ryall and Duncan Muscroft won the final match to give GBI its only afternoon point.
