United States win 2024 Presidents Cup
October 1, 2024
The United States have won the 2024 Presidents Cup. On Sunday at the Royal Montreal Golf Club, the United States trounced the International Team 18 1/2 to 11 1/2. Heading into Sunday’s action, it just seemed like a matter of time before the Americans would come away victorious. That is because they had a commanding 11-7 lead after an impressive birdie putt by Patrick Cantlay of Long Beach, California, in near darkness.
In Sunday’s singles action, six Americans came through with wins. The International Team won three matches, while three of the 12 matches ended in a tie.
The six American golfers who came away with Sunday wins were 2024 PGA Championship winner and 2024 British Open championship winner Xander Schauffele of San Diego, California, Russell Henley of Macon, Georgia, Cantlay, 2011 PGA Championship winner Keegan Bradley of Woodstock, Vermont, 2020 PGA Championship winner and 2021 British Open champion winner Collin Morikawa of Los Angeles, California and Max Homa of Burbank, California. Schauffele won 4 & 3 over Jason Day of Australia, Henley beat Sungjae Im of South Korea 3 & 2, Cantlay beat Taylor Pendrith of Canada 3 & 1, Bradley beat Si-Woo Kim of South Korea one up, Morikawa beat Adam Scott of Australia 2 & 1, and Homa beat Canadian Mackenzie Hughes 2 & 1.
The United States won the tournament when Bradley beat Kim. That gave the United States 15.5 points, and enough points to take the title. The biggest shot in Sunday’s singles action came from Homa. On the first hole against Hughes, Homa made a 102 yard approach shot with a highlight reel eagle.
The International Team still have won the Presidents Cup once. That came in 1998 in Melbourne.
