Corey Conners thought he’d got the break of a lifetime.The Canadian golfer’s approach shot on the second hole at Medinah seemed destined to sail out of bounds.Conners’ difficult day at the Presidents Cup was made worse by a fanGettyBut, in a bizarre sequence of events, the ball then began rolling towards the hole after a spectator half-volleyed it onto the green.The fan, immediately recognising his actions, clasped his hands to his face.Other spectators who witnessed the scene happily singled out the fan to on-field marshals while others booed.Unfortunately for Conners, who was in action on Saturday afternoon in the Presidents Cup foursomes, the slice of good fortune was quickly wiped out.Why Conners’ shot didn’t count after it was kicked by a spectatorSpeaking on the Golf Channel, PGA Tour rules official Mark Dusbabek explained that Conners’ ball was brought back to being out of bounds because it was a ‘deliberate action’ from a spectator.“You estimate where the ball would’ve landed if it wasn’t deflected,” Dusbabek said.“That ball would be out of bounds.”As a result, Conners and his partner Nick Taylor copped a stroke-and-distance penalty.Taylor then re-hit the ball from the same spot but it was a largely futile exercise as they double-bogeyed the hole, handing it on a platter to the American pairing of Russell Henley and Jacob Bridgeman.How did the International team perform during Saturday’s foursomes?Unfortunately for the International team, the spectator booting Conners’ ball back onto the course just about summed up their afternoon.View Tweet: https://x.com/PresidentsCup?ref_src=twsrc%5EtfwThe fan got plenty of distance on Conners’ ballSky SportsThe fan kicked Conners’ ball to within putting distanceSky SportsThe visitors went into the Saturday foursomes boasting a healthy 7-3 lead thanks to some brilliant play during Friday’s foursomes.But the advantage, and hopes for a first Presidents Cup since 1998, slowly diminished as the US roared back to life.The hosts clawed back some of the deficit during the Saturday four-ball courtesy of two wins and a tie, with the International team picking up just one win.Chris Gotterup and Cam Young got the US on the board for the day before Scottie Scheffler and Sam Burns wrapped things up in the final four-ball match to make it 8.5-5.5 in favour of the visitors.The US have been historically dominant in the competition since its inception in 1994.In fact, the US have only lost it outright to the International team just once (1998), while both teams fought to a draw in 2003.
