Q.433

This is a team competition in golf, very similar to the Ryder Cup. While in the Ryder Cup, a US team plays a team representing Europe, in this competition, the Americans play an International team. (Not surprisingly, "International" doesn't include Europe".)

This year's edition was held in Melbourne, Australia, and featured a tight finish with a notable last-day performance by Tiger Woods.

The cup was instituted in 1994 by the PGA Tour and its name probably explains why the inaugural edition was chaired by Gerald Ford; the role subsequently played by the likes of Bill Clinton, both Bush Sr. and Jr., and Thabo Mbeki of South Africa.

What's the name?
