Presidents Cup 2013 bound for the course that Jack built

Muirfield Village at Dublin, Ohio has been named as the venue for the 2013 Presidents Cup, the biennial event between the United States and the International team.
The Jack Nicklaus-designed course in Ohio staged the Ryder Cup in 1987 and the 1998 Solheim Cup.
"I view the Presidents Cup as a showcase for global golf and a platform to promote good will and sportsmanship inherent to the sport," Nicklaus said.
The USA, led by Fred Couples, next defend the title in Australia in 2011.The Presidents Cup was first played in 1994 and for the first two occasions was held at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Virginia, which hosted the tournament again in 2000 and 2005.
The event now alternates between the USA and international locations but was last held at the Harding Park Golf Club in San Francisco, with the Americans recording a third successive victory.
