00:00We love to recap what happened in a monster event there in the President's Cup.

00:06The final score, Team USA 18.5, the international team 11.5.

00:11And by the way, it started out and looked like it was going to be a runaway.

00:14Then the international team stepped up to the plate, but the team from the United States

00:18was better here.

00:19Talk about the week that was and also how impressive that win was for the United States.

00:23Well, I'll tell you what, our core four for the United States, and we're talking about

00:28Patrick, Colin, Xander, and Scotty, they almost won the event on their own.

00:33You add up their points that they earned this week, it was 15 and you only needed 15.5.

00:38That bodes well for future cup matches against whether it's the Ryder Cup or the President's

00:43Cup.

00:44The week overall, I would say was a success up there.

00:47The international team, it's a struggle because they are a global franchise and they've only

00:52spent about the last 10 years under that shield that they created, the black and gold.

00:58Building that culture and it's coming along.

01:00The guys are buying in and they'll be getting closer and closer.

01:03But you're talking about trying to build a team around a South Korean and a South African

01:07or an Australian and a Canadian.

01:10This isn't like Europe that's had the Ryder Cup going on for 100 years.

01:14And if you look back, the first 25 Ryder Cups, the US won 22 times.

01:19So I know it's been a landslide in the President's Cup, but Canada turned out for Friday, Saturday,

01:25and Sunday.

01:26They did their best from a fan's perspective.

01:28I think overall, the event was a success.

01:30But I'll tell you what, when 10 of your 12 players are in the top 20 of the official

01:35world golf rankings, the US is strong right now and they're tough to beat.

01:39I love the way they look going into Bethpage next year for the Ryder Cup.
