As Christiaan Bezuidenhout won his singles match against 2023 Open champion Brian Harman, the US Team claimed its 10th straight Presidents Cup on Sunday at Royal Montreal.

The Americans took an 11-7 lead into Sunday, where each of the 12 players on both teams played singles. Xander Schauffele scored the first point of the day for the US Team with a 4-and-3 win over Jason Day. Keegan Bradley clinched the winning point for the US with a 1-up victory on the 18th hole over Si Woo Kim.

At the conclusion of all matches, the final score was 18.5 US, 11.5 Internationals.

Bezuidenhout outlasted Brian Harman, notching a 2-and-1 victory in the penultimate match. The contest concluded on the 17th hole, with Bezuidenhout draining a 10-foot par from just off the green after Harman’s 11-foot birdie try hung on the lip.

Bezuidenhout set the tone early, winning the first hole with a five-foot birdie while Harman settled for par. The match remained tight through the front nine; Harman tied the match at the third, Bezuidenhout went 1-up at the fifth, Harman tied it back up with a birdie at the seventh, and the South African regained the lead with a birdie at the eighth.

Bezuidenhout won the 11th and 12th holes to push his lead to 3-up, and after Harman won the 14th hole with a par, Bezuidenhout stuffed his approach shot to four feet for a winning birdie at the par-four 15th. Although Harman fought back by winning the 16th hole with a par, it wasn’t enough to overcome Bezuidenhout’s lead.

Bezuidenhout concluded the week at 2-1-0 after captain Mike Weir didn’t pick him at all for the Saturday fourballs and foursomes.
