Ryan Fox shut down American hopes at the Presidents Cup after sinking the winning putt for the International team.<\/p>\n
Fox partnered with Australian Min Woo Lee to clutch a 1 up win over the American pair of double major winners Collin Morikawa and Wyndham Clark.<\/p>\n
Reigning Open champion Fox sealed victory on the 18th green after Lee’s supreme driving proved a feature of the day at Medina Country Club.<\/p>\n
The Internationals won the foursomes 5-0, giving them an overall tournament lead of 7-3 as they inched closer to their first Cup triumph in over 20 years.<\/p>\n
The US team won the first day of four-balls 3-2.<\/p>\n
It’s the largest lead the Internationals have had since 1998, the year they last won the Presidents Cup.<\/p>\n
Sunday’s matches will be critical, with four matches of fourballs being played before four matches of foursomes.<\/p>\n
Day three matches will begin at 12am NZT.<\/p>\n
To round out the tournament, day four will see all 24 golfers take part in 12 head-to-head singles matches.<\/p>\n
