Branden Grace holds the only 5-0 record in a losing Presidents Cup effort
Summary

Branden Grace remains the only golfer in Presidents Cup history to secure a perfect 5-0 record in a single tournament while finishing on the losing side. The feat occurred during the 2015 event in South Korea, where the International Team ultimately fell to the United States despite his performance. Grace secured his fifth point with a 2&1 victory over Matt Kuchar in the Sunday singles, tying the team score at 14.5-14.5 at that moment. This performance marked a significant turnaround for Grace, who had finished 0-4 during his debut at the 2013 Presidents Cup in Ohio. As the International Team prepares to compete at Medinah later this month, they seek only their second overall victory in the event's history. Captain Geoff Ogilvy is looking for competitive depth beyond individual efforts as the squad faces the upcoming challenge in Illinois.
