Aussie moves up; China's Li on list of Asian hopefuls for Presidents Cup

Eight-time Presidents Cup participant Adam Scott is in position to make a record ninth appearance for the International Team after vaulting seven spots into No 4 in the selection standings following his runner-up finish at last week's Memorial Tournament in Dublin, Ohio.

Meanwhile, Patrick Cantlay proved unbeatable at Muirfield Village Golf Club with a final-round 64 to capture his second career PGA Tour victory and jump from No 9 to No 6 in the US Team standings.
