The United States claimed a ninth victory in 11 editions of the Presidents Cup after a thrilling final day's play in South Korea.
Jay Haas' team prevailed 15½ - 14½ in Incheon, with his son - and captain's pick - Bill claiming the winning point in a superb final game against home hero Sang-Moon Bae, who was close to tears after fluffing his approach to the final hole.
The United States led by a point going into the final 12 singles matches, but they were in trouble from the start on Sunday, with the top of the International team's order producing some stunning golf.
Adam Scott put their first point on the board with a 6&5 demolition of Rickie Fowler, and it was only Dustin Johnson of the first six American players on course who claimed victory - he beat Danny Lee 2&1.
Wins for Hideki Matsuyama and Steven Bowditch cancelled out a 5&4 victory for Phil Mickelson over an out-of-sorts Charl Schwartzel.
But it was the match between Anirban Lahiri and Chris Kirk that proved pivotal, with the Indian's rally from two down coming a cropper at the last hole.
Lahiri appeared to be in position to claim a vital point for Nick Price's team, leaving himself a four-foot putt for birdie, but he was unable to hole under immense pressure after Kirk had holed from 15-feet to ensure that putt would only be for a halved match.
That point left the United States needing one more from the last three games, Zach Johnson having beaten World No 2 Jason Day to claim another vital US victory.
But World No 1 Jordan Spieth went down by a hole to Australia's Marc Leishman and South African Branden Grace claimed a 2&1 victory over Matt Kuchar to leave it up to Haas and Bae to decide the overall victor.
Bae never led in the final game on course, Haas winning the 12th to restore a one-hole advantage which he held all the way to the 16th, by which time it was clear their game would decide the trophy.
The Korean came close to holing from a bunker on the short 17th, but had to settle for a half, and his duffed chip on the final hole would prove to be too much to come back from, Haas claiming the hole with a birdie four and with it overall victory for his father's team.
