Presidents Cup 2026: Brandt Snedeker, Geoff Ogilvy make captain's picks ahead of meeting at Medinah Country Club
PGA Tour rookie Jackson Koivun was the last American selected to join the Presidents Cup team on Tuesday.
U.S. captain Brandt Snedeker and International Team captain Geoff Ogilvy have announced their final six selections for the 2026 Presidents Cup. The event will take place at Medinah Country Club later this month. The U.S. team, led by Scottie Scheffler, currently holds a strong lead with six automatic qualifiers. These players include Scheffler, Cameron Young, Wyndham Clark, Sam Burns, Russell Henley, and Collin Morikawa.
Snedeker chose notable golfers like Chris Gotterup, Xander Schauffele, Justin Thomas, and Patrick Cantlay for his team. Jacob Bridgeman and rookie Jackson Koivun, who secured his first Tour win just weeks after turning professional, round out the U.S. roster. On the International side, Si Woo Kim leads the team, having won 11 times on the PGA Tour this season.
Other automatic bids went to Ryan Fox, Hideki Matsuyama, Min Woo Lee, Tom Kim, Adam Scott, Corey Conners, Nico Echavarria, Nick Taylor, Sungjae Im, Ryo Hisatsune, and Christiaan Bezuidenhout. This marks the tenth consecutive win for the U.S. team against the International side, with the U.S. capturing the last meeting in Montreal in 2024 by a score of 18.5-11.5.
