A 10th consecutive loss by the International Team to the United States in the Presidents Cup has the global golf squad hoping to pull off another "Miracle at Medinah" in 2026.
The Americans completed an 181/2-111/2 victory over the International side by taking 71/2 points from the 12 closing singles matches at Royal Montreal on Sept 29.
The US team lead the all-time match-play rivalry 13-1-1. However, the International Team will renew their quest for a first victory since 1998 in two years at Medinah, where Europe made an epic last-day fightback to win the 2012 Ryder Cup.
"I feel like there has been an evolution. The result, unfortunately, is the same," said Australian Adam Scott, who has not won in 11 Cup starts.
"Hopefully this competition inspires all of us sitting up here to play really hard, go on with our careers the next two years, win big events and come back better prepared and ready to win in Chicago."
Scott, a 44-year-old from Adelaide who won the 2013 US Masters, said he hopes to be part of that show.
