Kim wins twice, Ortiz once, in Palmer Cup match play in France
Arkansas senior-to-be Dylan Kim notched two match play wins helping the United States extend its lead in Palmer Cup action.
EVIAN-les-BAINS, France — Arkansas senior-to-be Dylan Kim notched two match play wins helping the United States extend its lead in Palmer Cup action at Evian Resort Golf Club on Saturday.
Kim helped the Americans take a 20.5-15.5 advantage with Team USA needing just 30 points to retain the cup. The International team needs to 30.5 to reclaim the cup.
Morning play began with mixed foursomes and Kim teamed up with Justin Suh to defeat Maddie Szeryk and Andy Zhange, 5&3. Kim and Suh won the first hole and never trailed in the match.
Despite the win by Kim, the International Team closed the gap, winning seven of the 12 morning matches.
Team USA rebounded in the afternoon Four-Ball session where Kim was again victorious. She paired with Emila Migliaccio to defeat Jaravee Boonchant and Pimnipa Panthong, 1-up.
The match was all square through the first three holes before Kim and Migliaccio won the fourth hole of the round. They held the lead through 13 holes when Panthong and Boonchant squared the match with an eagle.
Kim and Migliaccio answered winning No. 15 and hanging on for the victory.

Recently graduated men’s golfer Alvaro Ortiz was also a winner on Saturday.
He and Razorback senior-to-be Maria Fassi dropped their first match in the morning, but Ortiz returned in the afternoon pairing with K.K. Limbhasut to defeat Stephen Franken and S.M. Lee of Team USA 5&4.
The duo opened on the 10th hole of the golf course and overcame a quick hole win by the Americans. Ortiz and Limhasut squared the match on the fourth hole of the round and took the lead on No. 17.
They also won No. 18 moving to 2-up. They put together a streak of three holes in a row winning Nos. 3, 4, and 5 to clinch the match.
Alana Uriell, who graduated in May, dropped both of her matches, first 2-up and the afternoon match by a score of 5&3.
Fassi and Ortiz were defeated in the morning, 5&4, and Fassi dropped her afternoon contest by the same score.
