The United States staged a superb fightback to beat Great Britain and Ireland and retain the Walker Cup at St Andrews.
GB&I led by three points after the opening day, but the USA won Sunday morning's foursomes 3-1 to reduce their deficit and then took seven points from the 10 singles matches to win by 14.5 to 11.5.England's Jack Bigham and Ireland's Mark Power were the home side's only winners in the singles, Bigham beating Nick Gabrelcik 3&2 and Power making birdies on the 17th and 18th to defeat Ben James and claim his third victory of the weekend.
We had a nice lead this morning that we kind of let slide quite a bit in the foursomes but I think where the guys will be hurting the most is they'll know themselves they haven't turned up this afternoon and acquitted themselves in the way we know they can.'We always thought it was going to be a tight match and everything went our way yesterday . Six matches went up the last and we got four and a half points out of them but all the momentum seemed to be with the US side today.
