The United States regained the Ryder Cup against Europe at Hazeltine.
The winning moment came when Lee Westwood made a bogey on the 18th.
That then left Ryan Moore, the man who was picked last for the US team, three putts to win the hole.
Wild celebrations immediately followed as several American players broke down in tears
And US captain Davis Love immediately dedicated the win to golf legend Arnold Palmer, who died last week.
He said: "Arnold was part of the American golf family so this win is in his memory.
"We felt his presence with us every step of the way."
Europe were trailing 9½-6½ going into the final-day singles, but they looked set for a Medinah-style comeback when they led in seven matches.
The US turned the tide, Patrick Reed beating Rory McIlroy in an epic tussle for the first of five points required.
It was left to Moore to beat Lee Westwood for the decisive point, giving the US their first win since 2008.
It was a particularly sweet victory for US captainLove, who was in charge four years ago when Europe won despite being 10-4 down on the second afternoon.
For Europe, who failed in their bid to win the Cup for an unprecedented fourth successive occasion, Darren Clarke will come under the sort of scrutiny associated with a losing skipper.
