INCHEON, South Korea (Reuters) - India's Anirban Lahiri had hoped for a chance at redemption on the final day of his debut President's Cup but when it eventually came, on the final hole of a pivotal singles tie against Chris Kirk, the rookie crumbled.

Kirk had holed a downhill 15-foot putt on the last that left the 28-year-old Lahiri, who had lost both previous matches in Incheon, with three-and-a-half feet to tie the American and move the Internationals onto 13.5 points in the race to 15.5.
