The four-day teams matchplay event, being held for the first time at TPC Harding Park in San Francisco, pits multiple countries against each other in a tournament format unlike what you’ll find in the Ryder Cup or Solheim Cup… or any other in professional golf.
Just a week ago, Alejandro Tosti and Wilson Furr were among those caught up in one of the more bizarre rules gaffes in recent memory. Nine days later, each can boast about how they bounced back rather well from such ignominy.
