World Cup (men's Golf)
The World Cup of Golf is a men's golf tournament contested by teams of two representing their country. Only one team is allowed from each country. The players are selected on the basis of the Official World Golf Ranking, although not all of the first choice players choose to compete. The equivalent event for women is the Women's World Cup of Golf.
The event currently has a title sponsor, Omega, so the full name of the event, since 2007, has been the Omega Mission Hills World Cup.

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or cup:
“The world is the best of all possible worlds, and everything in it is a necessary evil.”
—F.H. (Francis Herbert)
“I believe that water is the only drink for a wise man: wine is not so noble a liquor; and think of dashing the hopes of a morning with a cup of warm coffee, or of an evening with a dish of tea! Ah, how low I fall when I am tempted by them! Even music may be intoxicating. Such apparently slight causes destroyed Greece and Rome, and will destroy England and America.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
