Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox individual golf tournament The 2011 Omega Mission Hills World Cup was a golf tournament that took place 24–27 November on the Blackstone course[1] at Mission Hills Haikou in Hainan, China. It was the 56th World Cup, and the first since 2009, when the tournament switched to being staged biennially. 28 countries competed as two player teams. The purse was increased from $5.5 million in 2009 to $7.5 million in 2011.[2] The event was won by the United States, represented by Matt Kuchar and Gary Woodland with a score of 264, 24 under par.[3][4][5][6][7]
Qualification and format
The leading 18 available players from different countries in the Official World Golf Ranking qualified automatically on 18 July. These 18 players then selected a player from their country to compete with them. The person they picked had to be ranked within the top 100 on the Official World Golf Ranking as of 1 September. If there was no other player from that country within the top 100 then the next highest ranked player would be their partner. If there was no other available player from that country within the top 500, then the exempt player could choose whoever he wanted as long as they are a professional from the same country.[8] A further nine countries qualified via three qualifying stages, held in Malaysia,[9] Estonia[10] and Venezuela.[11] The final team was the host nation, China.
The 18 qualifying players (together with their country and World Ranking on 18 July) were Martin Kaymer (Germany, ranked 3), Rory McIlroy (Ireland, 4), Matt Kuchar (USA, 8), Charl Schwartzel (South Africa, 12), Ian Poulter (England, 16), Robert Karlsson (Sweden, 19), Francesco Molinari (Italy, 23), Álvaro Quirós (Spain, 24), Martin Laird (Scotland, 26), Anders Hansen (Denmark, 41), Raphaël Jacquelin (France, 69), Yuta Ikeda (Japan, 70), Brendan Jones (Australia, 73), Nicolas Colsaerts (Belgium, 75), Camilo Villegas (Colombia, 78), Jamie Donaldson (Wales, 98), Thongchai Jaidee (Thailand, 101) and Brendon de Jonge (Zimbabwe, 106). South Korea, Fiji and Argentina would have qualified automatically had their leading players chosen to play.[12]
The event was a 72-hole stroke play team event with each team consisting of two players. The first and third days were fourball play and the second and final days were foursomes play.[2]
