Team USA, led by captain Jim Furyk, is set to take on the International Team, captained by Mike Weir, at this week’s 2024 Presidents Cup. The biennial bash is taking place north of the border at the Royal Montreal Golf Club in Quebec, Canada. Three players on the International side — Corey Conners, Mackenzie Hughes and Taylor Pendrith — and captain Weir are Canadian natives.
Team USA, on the other hand, will be led by several of the best players in the world including Scottie Scheffler, Xander Schauffele and Collin Morikawa.
The Americans won the last edition at Quail Hollow 17½-12½ in 2022 and lead the all-time record at 12-1-1.

Format, schedule
Two formats will be used over the first three days of the match-play competition. On Thursday and Saturday morning, two-man teams from each side will compete in foursomes — alternate shot — sessions. Each team will decide which player tees off on odd-numbered holes and which will tee off on even-numbered holes. The players will alternate shots until the ball is holed.
On Friday and Saturday afternoon, two-man teams from each side will compete in fourball — best ball — sessions. All players will play their own golf ball until it is holed, and the best score from each two-man team will count for the team.
On Sunday, all 12 players from each team will play in Sunday singles. One-on-one matchups to decide the winner of the Presidents Cup.
