Presidents Cup '26: Facts and Figures for the 16th Edition
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, pitting the United States against an International team. U.S. captain Brandt Snedeker and International captain Geoff Ogilvy lead their respective squads in the biennial competition.
- Entering as a heavy-400 betting favorite, the United States seeks to extend a streak of 10 consecutive victories. The International team holds +350 odds, attempting to overcome a historical series deficit.
- Scottie Scheffler leads the American team, which features seven players ranked inside the top 10 in the world. The International team relies on top-tier talent including Hideki Matsuyama and Adam Scott, though their overall depth remains less accomplished.
- The International team has won only once in 15 events, facing steep odds despite talent. With just three players who won on the PGA Tour this year, the squad confronts a significant depth disadvantage against the American team.
- Players return to Medinah Country Club, where Team Europe mounted a famous comeback in a past Ryder Cup. The International team hopes to summon those 'ghosts of Medinah' to disrupt the American team's 10-year dominance.
