U.S. shines at Presidents Cup and is struggling at Ryder Cup. But why?

In a unique twist on the Presidents Cup tradition, rookie Jackson Koivun attended the gala event solo, much like Rickie Fowler and Viktor Hovland before him. Koivun, dressed in a fine suit, posed for the cameras alongside his teammates and wives at iconic Chicago venues, including Cloudgate, also known as The Bean, and the Art Institute of Chicago.

The ladies had a group photo, and when Koivun was invited to join, he couldn't resist the opportunity. Undeterred by the lack of a date, Koivun seized the moment and joined the ladies, becoming the center of attention. At just 21 years old, Koivun had already made a name for himself by winning his first PGA Tour event the month prior.
