USA WIN THE ESPIRITO SANTA TROPHY - WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS

USA TEAM

The United States of America produced a final day flourish to win the World Amateur Championship by 10 shots and take home the Espirito Santo Trophy for the first time since 1998.

Ireland entered the closing round with an outside chance of taking a medal but they failed to gain ground and an even par return for the day left them finishing in a tie for 11th place. Japan, second on 19 under, and Republic of Korea, one shot further back in third, filled the medal positions.
