With the 15th edition of the Presidents Cup set to tee off on Thursday, it’s time to take a deeper look at each of the squad’s talent.
Team USA’s roster will be headlined by world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and two-time 2024 major winner Xander Schauffele. They will be joined by 2022 U.S. Prez Cup teammates Collin Morikawa and Patrick Cantlay. Wyndham Clarkand Sahith Theegala, both Cup rookies, round out the six American qualifiers.
Keegan Bradley highlights captain Jim Furyk‘s six at-large picks. The New England native, who’d earlier been named a vice-captain for the Montreal matches, will now instead tee it up as a player. Brandt Snedeker will replace Bradley as one of the vice-captains.
Sam Burns, Russell Henley, Brian Harman, Max Homa and Tony Finau were the other picks by Furyk. Harman and Henley will be making their debuts as well.
The International team will be captained by former Masters champion Mike Weir. The 54-year-old Canadian will lead a squad headlined by a pair of fellow green jacket owners in Hideki Matsuyama of Japan and Australia’s Adam Scott.
The International team’s four other qualifiers were Scott’s compatriot, Jason Day, alongside a trio of South Koreans in Sungjae Im, Tom Kim, and Byeong Hun An, all veterans of the past President Cup matches.
Weir’s six at-large picks included three fellow Canucks in Corey Conners, Taylor Pendrith and Mackenzie Hughes, a third Aussie in Min Woo Lee and Christiaan Bezuidenhout of South Africa. Hughes and Lee are first-timers.
The 2024 Presidents Cup will be contested at Royal Montreal Golf Club in Canada, Sept. 26-29.
