A stellar line-up of the world's best golfers converges at the Medinah Country Club to contest the Presidents Cup in the United States this weekend. Will Team USA secure an eleventh consecutive title, or can the Internationals record their first victory since 1998?
In 2024, Team USA defeated the Internationals 18.5 - 11.5 at the Royal Montreal Golf Club in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, to retain the Presidents Cup for the tenth consecutive time.
The Medinah Country Club has a rich history of hosting significant golfing events including the 1949 U.S. Open, the 1975 U.S. Open, the 1988 U.S. Senior Open, the 1990 U.S. Open, the 1999 PGA Championship, the 2006 PGA Championship, the 2012 Ryder Cup, and the 2026 Presidents Cup.
Past and present Major winners in the lineup include Scottie Scheffler, Wyndham Clark, Xander Schauffele, Collin Morikawa, Justin Thomas, Ryan Fox, Hideki Matsuyama, and Adam Scott.
These are our best bets for the 2026 Presidents Cup.

The Team To Win
The Presidents Cup has been held in the United States on eight occasions, with Team USA emerging victorious every time on home soil.
Their overall record is equally impressive, with 13 victories to one against the Internationals, including one tie across 15 editions, and ten consecutive titles.
Team USA have been the dominant force in the competition and have never lost in the United States, giving them an advantage in retaining the Presidents Cup this weekend.
Tournament Winning Margin
The past five Presidents Cups have been a mix of nail-biters and easy victories. Team USA edged the Internationals 15.5-14.5 in 2015, before winning 19-11 in 2017, 16-14 in 2019, 17.5-12.5 in 2022, and 18.5-11.5 in 2024.
Both sides possess plenty of quality and have players capable of producing outstanding performances. However, Team USA appear particularly strong compared to the Internationals, with many players having won titles on the PGA Tour this season, including at the Majors, which could see them retain the Presidents Cup with a projected 17-13 victory for their eleventh straight win.
Top Points Scorer for Team USA
Wyndham Clark has had an outstanding season on the PGA Tour, recording three victories, including his second Major title.
Clark emerged victorious at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, the U.S. Open, and the recent BMW Championship.
Other noteworthy results achieved by Clark this year include 3rd at the Memorial Tournament, a T5 at the Travelers Championship, and a T5 at the FedEx St. Jude Championship.
The two-time U.S. Open champion was part of the 2024 Presidents Cup winning team and has a record of 1-2-1.
Wyndham Clark has been on top of his game this season and will be hard to stop from becoming the leading points scorer for Team USA this weekend.
Top Points Scorer for the Internationals
Si Woo Kim has been ultra-consistent on the PGA Tour this year, finishing inside the top three on six occasions.
Kim placed 3rd at the Crown Australian Open, T2 at the Farmers Insurance Open, T3 at the WM Phoenix Open, 3rd at the RBC Heritage, 2nd at the CJ CUP Byron Nelson, and 2nd at the FedEx St. Jude Championship.
Other prominent results include a T6 at the American Express, a T4 at the Cadillac Championship, and a T6 at the Open Championship.
The three-time PGA Tour winner has compiled a record of 6-5-0 at the Presidents Cup.
Si Woo Kim has been in great shape this season and will be leading from the front for the Internationals in Illinois this weekend.
Format
The Presidents Cup takes place over four days, comprising 30 matches and 30 points at stake, with the first team to reach 15.5 points winning the cup. In a tie, the trophy is shared.
Each victory in a match is worth one point, and a tie is worth half a point.
Day 1: 5 Four-ball matches.
Day 2: 5 Foursomes matches.
Day 3: 4 Four-ball matches in the morning and 4 Foursome matches in the afternoon.
Day 4: 12 Singles matches.
Verdict
Team USA is backed to retain the Presidents Cup for a record eleventh time, as they have the advantage of playing at home and many of their players have won tournaments this season.
Team USA is tipped to secure the title with a 17-13 victory over the Internationals at the Medinah Country Club, as they have a proven track record in this competition and on home soil.
Wyndham Clark has every chance of finishing as the leading individual points scorer for Team USA, as he has been in fine fettle during 2026, winning three titles, including a Major.
Si Woo Kim has been in excellent touch this season, consistently recording top-three finishes and has the form to be the leading individual points scorer for the Internationals.
