INCHEON, South Korea – It’s been a dramatic turnaround for Louis Oosthuizen, who two weeks ago withdrew from the Tour Championship with a strained muscle in his right knee but on Thursday provided the only International highlight at the Presidents Cup.
Oosthuizen teamed with fellow South African Branden Grace to claim the International team’s only point on Thursday, a 3-and-2 victory over Matt Kuchar and Patrick Reed.
International captain Nick Price demonstrated his confidence in Oosthuizen by sending him out first on Friday to play Jordan Spieth and Dustin Johnson, and the Internationals will need continued production from Oosthuizen if they hope to keep the match close.
