EVIAN-les-BAINS, France — Arkansas graduate Alvaro Ortiz wrapped up match play at the 2018 Palmer Cup at Evian Resort Golf Club on Sunday.

The United States claimed 18 of 24 points in the final round singles matches to pull away for a 38.5-21.5. This year’s edition of Team USA is the first side to win as the visiting team since the 2010 Americans. Neither side had retained the cup since the US in 2011. The United States now leads the all-time series 12-9-1.

Ortiz played his way to three match wins in four events. He opened pairing with fellow Razorback Maria Fassi and the duo won the Mixed Four-Ball match on day one. They were again paired in round two for the Mixed Foursomes but dropped the match.

Ortiz rebounded that same afternoon teamming with KK Limbhasut picking up the 5&4 win in Four-Ball pairings. Ortiz dropped the final match of the tournament on Sunday, 1-up. It was a match that saw Ortiz hold as much as a two hole lead through the first nine holes. His opponent squared the match on the 15th hole and birdied the 16th hole. He would hang on for the one-hole win.
