Aussies Around The World: Weekend Preview

PRESIDENTS CUP The cream of world golf is assembled in Canada this week for the Presidents Cup staged at The Royal Montreal Golf Club. Four Aussies form the backbone of the International Team and if history is anything to go by, this is no real surprise. In fact, of the 34 International players picked throughout the last seven Cup&aposs, 13 of them have hailed from down under. Stuart Appleby is the veteran among the group, starting his fifth campaign while Geoff Ogilvy will be making his Presidents Cup debut. The action starts early Friday morning (AEST) with the first round of foursomes.
