The United States won 17-15 to move to 3-0 in the history of the tournament
For the third year in a row, the United States defeated the Internationals at the Bridges Cup The Club at Haesley Nine Bridges in Gyeonggi-do, South Korea.
Session one of Four-Ball was the difference in the Cup, as the United States jumped out to an early 5-1 lead and held off the Internationals for the rest of the week, winning 17-15 and getting out of Sunday Singles with a 6 to 6 tie.
The International team won the second session, which was foursomes, 3-1, to make the score 6-4 after day one in favor of the United States. The rest of the tournament was a tie, with the United States holding onto that two-point through the last two days.
The Internationals made a late push in the Sunday Singles, earning four of the last five points to make it close, but Joe Deraney won the final match to give the United States the outright win at 17-15. If the final were 16-16, the United States would have retained the cup since the International needed 16.5 to win it for the first time.
Deraney won the 2023 Canadian Mid-Amateur, the 2023 Devils Elbow Invitational, and the 2024 Lupton Memorial.
