What could decide the Presidents Cup?
The paired sessions. The first 18 matches are played in pairs. In four-ball, each golfer plays their own ball and the lower score from each pair counts on the hole. In foursomes, partners alternate shots with one ball. The captains’ pairing decisions could therefore matter differently across the two formats.
The depth of both teams. Captain Brandt Snedeker’s US roster includes Scottie Scheffler, Xander Schauffele, Collin Morikawa and Patrick Cantlay. International captain Geoff Ogilvy’s roster includes Hideki Matsuyama, Adam Scott, Tom Kim and Si Woo Kim. How those players perform alongside their partners and in singles will contribute to the overall score.
The position entering Sunday. Twelve singles matches remain after Saturday, leaving substantial scope for the team score to change on the final day. The US won the 2024 Presidents Cup 18.5–11.5, but that result does not determine how the teams will perform at Medinah.
What could change the outlook?
Pairing decisions, player form, weather and the results of earlier sessions could all alter the path to 15.5 points. OG market prices may also move as play progresses. Check the current market and its contract terms before deciding how you think an outcome will be settled.
