Freddie and The Shark to Do President

Fred Couples, Greg Norman to Lead Golf's Presidents Cup Teams

Bloomberg

Fred Couples and Greg Norman will lead the U.S. and International teams for the 2009 Presidents Cup golf matches in San Francisco.

Couples will replace Jack Nicklaus, who led the U.S. the past three times in the biennial competition against a team of players from outside the U.S. and Europe.

Norman, a three-time Presidents Cup competitor from Australia, replaces South Africa's Gary Player.

The U.S. won at Royal Montreal Golf Club in Canada last year and at Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Virginia in 2005. The 2009 Presidents Cup is scheduled to be played at Harding Park Golf Club.

``It's kind of nerve-wracking to say that you're following Jack Nicklaus, but I think I will do a great job and will certainly have a good time,'' Couples said on a media conference call from Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, site of this week's Honda Classic tournament.

Couples, 48, played on the U.S. team in 1994, 1996, 1998 and 2005, compiling a 9-5-2 record, including 3-0-1 in singles play.

Norman, 53, competed in the 1996, 1998 and 2000 events, posting a 7-6-1 record, 1-2-0 in singles.


The golf carts are carried by the caddie while the golfers enjoy their golf vacations. The golf clubs are made in different designs and shapes to provide the golfers with a range of equipments to play their best shops. The basketball equipment and the lacrosse gaming tools are available from the online sport shops which are not very expensive and are affordable by many users.
