Maruyama’s past heroics can fire up International spirit in Presidents Cup


TWENTY six years have passed since Shigeki Maruyama produced a performance for the ages by going a perfect 5-0-0 in his Presidents Cup debut at Royal Melbourne in Australia which sparked what has since become the lone International Team victory to date against the United States Team in the biennial competition.

Now 54, the three-time PGA Tour winner emerged as an unlikely star in 1998 following a famous 20.5 – 11.5 drubbing over the Americans, who had a prime Tiger Woods in their formidable 12-man squad.
