Five Asian players on International Team
Five Asian golfers, including a record four South Koreans, will feature on the International Team for the 2022 Presidents Cup after captain Trevor Immelman selected South Korea's KH Lee and Kim Si-woo among his six picks in the 12-man roster to face the United States later this month.
Immelman also opted for South Africa's Christiaan Bezuidenhout, Australia's Cam Davis, Colombia's Sebastian Munoz and Canada's Taylor Pendrith. It will mark Lee's Presidents Cup debut following his career-best season on the PGA Tour while Kim will make his second appearance after playing in the 2017 edition.
Lee and Kim Si-woo join their already qualified compatriots Im Sung-jae and Tom Kim on the International Team. Im finished tied-second in this year's FedExCup, while Tom Kim won his maiden PGA Tour title last month. Japan's Hideki Matsuyama, an eight-time PGA Tour winner, also qualified and will be making a fifth straight appearance at the Presidents Cup.
