News: Presidents Cup November 7 2011 10:33 am Asian country to host 2015 Pres. Cup? Later this month, The Presidents Cup takes place in Australia. In 2013, the biennial event will be held on U.S. soil at Muirfield Village in Dublin, Ohio. As of now, the site for the 2015 event has not been determined. With the PGA TOUR having just completed its two-week swing through Asia, Commissioner Tim Finchem said there is strong interest in having the 2015 event in the region. "We are looking hard at Asia," Finchem said in a story GolfWeek's Alex Miceli. "Asia has become a bigger part of what The Presidents Cup is all about, not just from the standpoint of Asians playing, but a lot of the guys that play Cup-in and Cup-out are players that play a lot in Asia. . . . "We would be very interested in playing in Asia." Of the 12 players on the International team in this year's Presidents Cup, three are from Korea (K.J. Choi, Kyung-tae Kim and Y.E. Yang) and another is from Japan (Ryo Ishikawa). Korea, Japan as well as China, which hosted last week's World Golf Championships-HSBC Champions in Shanghai, are on the short list of potential 2015 sites, Finchem told the magazine. Korea appears to be the front-runner. "I think Korea ?three players on The Presidents Cup team, pretty strong system of developing elite players ?is something we would be looking at," Finchem said.
