SEOUL (Reuters) - Phil Mickelson may have been a controversial choice for the United States' Presidential Cup team but the veteran American more than repaid the faith shown in him.

Although Mickelson had played in the 10 previous editions of the Presidents Cup, he did not earn automatic selection this time and only got in after Jay Haas chose him as one of his captain's picks.
