A week before the 15th Presidents Cup at the Royal Montreal Golf Club in Canada, American captain Jim Furyk did not appreciate the question from a journalist from his country and made it clear to him! He explained that he was just doing his job by asking his question, but Adam Schupack was met with lightning from his interlocutor, Team USA captain Jim Furyk!

"Indeed, the latter did not appreciate at all the remark of the GolfWeek journalist who suggested that for the good of the Presidents Cup, it might be a good thing for the United States to lose in Quebec where the competition is making its return 14 years after a victory by Jack Nicklaus' men.
Furyk, statements
Indeed, in 30 years of confrontations, the Americans have won twelve times out of fourteen and their only defeat against the Internationals dates back to 1998! Really? Youre American, you should understand that this question offends me, began the captain of the 2018 Ryder Cup in Paris.
I have nothing against you but its a shitty question. Furyk therefore reproaches his compatriot for not taking his side and implying that a rebalancing of forces would be desirable. Do you know how hard the captains work, how many hours they devote to trying to win these matches? The level of disappointment of the players when they dont play well? Ive seen men cry in the locker room because they were frustrated after a defeat.

And to conclude Its not like Im going to kill you right now, but f..k you! You can quote me. The Rules of Golf are a set of rules and standard procedures by which the sport of golf should be played.
They are jointly written and administered by the Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews, the governing body of golf throughout the world, except in the United States and Mexico, which are governed by the United States Golf Association.
An expert committee, made up of members of the R&A and the USGA, oversees and refines the Rules every four years. The latest revision was effective January 1, 2016. Changes to the Rules of Golf generally fall into two main categories: those that improve understanding of the Rules and those that reduce penalties in certain cases to ensure balance.

The rulebook, entitled "The Rules of Golf," is published on a regular basis and also includes rules governing amateur status. In Italy, the Federgolf is responsible for supervising competitions by enforcing the rules issued by the R & A, checking that these rules are observed by the Clubs, Associations and their members and managing the resulting sporting justice, protecting their interests abroad.
