Presidents Cup 2026: Stage Set for Scottie Scheffler as Internationals Aim to End Drought
Geoff Ogilvy’s squad features 12 players, but the Internationals have won only once in 15 Presidents Cup events.
- The 16th Presidents Cup begins Thursday at Medinah Country Club, with U.S. captain Brandt Snedeker leading the Americans against International captain Geoff Ogilvy's team in the biennial competition.
- Entering as a-400 betting favorite, the United States seeks to extend a streak of 10 consecutive victories in the event, while the International team holds +350 odds and pursues a historic upset.
- Scottie Scheffler leads the American team with seven players ranked inside the top 10, while the International team counters with top-tier talent including Hideki Matsuyama and Adam Scott, though their overall depth lags.
- Despite top-tier talent, the International team has won only once in 15 events and includes just three PGA Tour winners this year, with Si Woo Kim their highest-ranked player at 13.
- Players return to Medinah Country Club, where Team Europe staged a famous Ryder Cup comeback, and the International team hopes to summon those 'ghosts of Medinah' to disrupt American dominance.
