The United States made a stunning rally to capture an 11th consecutive Presidents Cup title on Sunday, completing a 17-13 victory over the Internationals with Donald Trump<\/a> in attendance.<\/p>\n

Jacob Bridgeman secured the clinching point at Medinah by sinking a four-foot par putt at the 18th hole to defeat Australian Min Woo Lee 1-up.<\/p>\n

The Americans improved to 14-1-1 in the biennial rivalry after trailing 10.5-7.5 entering Sunday\u2019s 12 concluding singles matches. The Internationals were poised to end a 28-year win drought but fell short once again.<\/p>\n

The Americans, boasting eight of the world\u2019s 11 top-ranked golfers, won on the same suburban Chicago layout where Europe took the 2012 Ryder Cup with the famed Miracle at Medinah fightback<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese guys never lost faith,\u201d US captain Brandt Snedeker said. \u201cI told the guys last night that funny stuff happens here. Medinah\u2019s got a history of funny things happening, and sure enough, they went out there and played their asses off. I\u2019m so damn proud of those guys.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump, who attended last year\u2019s US Ryder Cup<\/a> loss, added to his 2026 live sports viewing list<\/a> that has included the World Cup final, the NBA finals, college football, UFC and IndyCar events plus various golf events.<\/p>\n

\u201c[Trump] told me I was going to bring some energy today for you guys. You guys need it,\u201d Snedeker said. \u201cAnd I told him if we did this, he gets all the credit. So thank you, President Trump.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The United States made a stunning rally to capture an 11th consecutive Presidents Cup title on Sunday, completing…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":862996,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[71],"tags":[427,99],"class_list":["post-862995","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-golf","tag-golf","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/862995","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=862995"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/862995\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/862996"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=862995"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=862995"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=862995"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
