The 16th Presidents Cup is currently underway at Medinah Country Club in Illinois, where Team USA is hosting the International side in a four‑day showdown. The tournament features five distinct sessions, with a total of 30 points available. The competition began with a strong showing from the United States on Thursday, as they captured three of the five four‑ball matches.
The following day, however, the International squad turned the tables, sweeping all five foursomes matches and narrowing the margin. Saturday will host another round of four‑ball matches followed by foursomes, each scheduled in British Summer Time (BST). The day’s four‑ball line‑ups include: - Patrick Cantlay and Xander Schauffele versus Tom Kim and Si Woo Kim (match 1915) - Russell Henley paired with Jacob Bridgeman against Corey Conners and Nick Taylor (match 1929) - Cameron Young teamed with Chris Gotterup facing Adam Scott and Sungjae Im (match 1943) - Sam Burns alongside Wyndham Clark taking on Ryan Fox and Min Woo Lee (match 1957) The foursomes later on Saturday will see the same pairings compete in the alternate‑shot format, adding another layer of strategy and teamwork to the event.
Sunday’s finale consists of 24 singles matches that will decide the ultimate champion. The singles start at 17:02 BST and run until the final point is secured, with the first side to reach 15.5 points clinching the Cup. As the defending champions, Team USA needs 15 points to retain the trophy and is aiming for an 11th straight victory in the biennial contest. The International team, on the other hand, is hunting for only their second title—its first since 1998—after a dominant run by the United States that has seen America win 13 of the last 15 editions.
Team USA is led by captain Brandt Snedeker, who is determined to extend the United States’ recent dominance after the 2024 triumph. His vice‑captains include seasoned veterans Gary Woodland, Jim Furyk, Keegan Bradley, and Webb Simpson. The roster features a mix of automatic qualifiers—Scottie Scheffler, Cameron Young, Wyndham Clark, Sam Burns, Russell Henley, and Collin Morikawa—and captain’s picks such as Jacob Bridgeman, Patrick Cantlay, Chris Gotterup, Jackson Koivun, Xander Schauffele, and Justin Thomas.
The International side is captained by Geoff Ogilvy, a former major champion who has yet to guide his team to a victory on foreign soil. His vice‑captains are Trevor Immelman, Tim Clark, Taylor Pendrith, and Camilo Villegas. The International roster includes automatic qualifiers Si Woo Kim (Korea), Hideki Matsuyama (Japan), Min Woo Lee (Australia), Tom Kim (Korea), and Adam Scott (Australia). The captain’s picks add depth with Sungjae Im (Korea), Nico Echavarria (Colombia), Corey Conners (Canada), Nick Taylor (Canada), Christiaan Bezuidenhout (South Africa), and Ryo Hisatsune (Japan).
