HOYLAKE, England – It was a nightmare start Saturday morning for the U.S. Walker Cup team. Luckily for the visiting side, the finish was much better.
Andy Ogletree, out first in foursomes with fellow U.S. Amateur finalist John Augenstein, hit his approach shot out of bounds on Royal Liverpool’s first hole, and Great Britain and Ireland jumped on their counterparts early, leading in each of the first three matches at one point on the front nine.
But the Americans clawed their way back and ultimately earned a 2-2 tie after the opening foursomes session.
