Kuchar 'refreshed' after spa treatment

MATT Kuchar found an unusual way to celebrate his dizzying run of success last month, spending a day at the spa with his wife Sybi in Haikou, Hainan Province.

A week after helping the United States win the Presidents Cup in Australia, Kuchar and his playing partner Gary Woodland clinched the World Cup for their country in Haikou last Sunday.

With his flight back to the US not scheduled until Monday night, Kuchar took up an offer by World Cup hosts for him and his wife to enjoy the spa at the spectacular Mission Hills resort.

"The guy that hosted the event, Tenniel Chu is his name, he took care of our spa appointments for the day," Kuchar told reporters. "He said: 'What great playing, I'd like for you guys to enjoy the whole facility.' So my wife and I spent the whole day at the spa. It's the first time I've ever done that and it was a great way to celebrate."

Kuchar, who has climbed to 11th in the world rankings, said his only concern at the spa was enduring all the creams while having facial treatment.

"They put the mask on and cream and goop and gel and all the stuff," he said.

"I didn't love all the stuff on my face. I enjoy the massaging part, but all the extra stuff I could have done without.

"But I did feel like I looked completely refreshed afterwards. I felt like I had a real shine to my face."
