INCHEON, South Korea – Is it possible that eliminating four matches could change the Presidents Cup so drastically?
For International captain Nick Price and former chief Greg Norman, plus players Ernie Els and Adam Scott, it was never a question about what the changes would mean.
PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem, though, wasn’t as sold on the idea, despite U.S. dominance in the series.
So after the 2009 Presidents Cup at San Francisco’s Harding Park, a five-point International loss, Norman started to beat the drum for a reduction from the 34 points for the four-day event.
