Kuchar won three holes for the Americans, capturing No. 2, No. 4 and No. 10 at Medinah Country Club. Johnson won a single hole, saving his best for last in grabbing No. 17. Kuchar and Johnson are now both two for two in the this year’s competition, capturing both matches they have participated in.
Team USA now leads the event 10-4, with two afternoon fourball contests yet to be determined.
The day wasn’t perfect for the American duo, though, as Matt Kuchar found himself in some trouble on hole No. 16. Have to imagine that is not how he drew it up.
