Presidents Cup Asian Debut Will Help Game Grow-Choi

SEOUL — This year's Presidents Cup in Incheon will not only spur the growth of golf in South Korea, it will encourage other Asian nations to bring the tournament to their shores and boost the sport's popularity throughout the region, says KJ Choi.

The Korean, vice captain to International team skipper Nick Price, said the team leadership would leave no stone unturned in their planning for the match-up with the United States from Oct. 8-11 at Incheon's Jack Nicklaus Golf Club.

The United States have won eight of the 10 Presidents Cups played since the biennial competition was established in 1994 and will be heavy favourites for this year's contest, which is the first to be hosted by an Asian country.
