NEW YORK - Tiger Woods and Bill Haas were both named to a powerful United States team for this year's Presidents Cup while the Australian pair of Robert Allenby and Aaron Baddeley filled the two International places as the rival captains revealed their wildcard selections on Tuesday.

The American team's non-playing captain, Fred Couples, had already announced he was reserving one of his two spots for Woods, while Haas provided a compelling case for his inclusion on the 12-man roster by winning last weekend's season-ending Tour Championship in Atlanta and the $10 million bonus as FedExCup points champion.

International captain Greg Norman also kept true to his pledge that he wanted two of his countrymen who had experience playing the tricky Royal Melbourne Golf Club layout where the Ryder Cup-style competition will be contested from Nov 17-20.
