Canadians Conners, Taylor make International Team at Presidents Cup

Canadians Corey Conners and Nick Taylor were selected to the International Team for the Presidents Cup later this month at Medinah. Neither Conners nor Taylor automatically qualified as one of the top six players, but were chosen by International Team captain Geoff Ogilvy Tuesday evening. Conners and Taylor join Si Woo Kim, Tom Kim, Min Woo Lee, Adam Scott, Ryan Fox and Hideki Matsuyama, who qualified automatically. Also making up the International squad are Nico Echavarria, Sungjae Im, Ryo Hisatsune and Christiaan Bezuidenhout. Taylor Pendrith of Richmond Hill, Ont., is serving as one of the alternate captains alongside Trevor Immelman and Camilo Villegas under Ogilvy.
