Presidents Cup 2026 Tee Times, Format And Full Schedule

The 2026 Presidents Cup is just days away as the United States look to continue their dominance over the International Team at Medinah.

Dating back to the inaugural edition in 1994, the record of the US in the Presidents Cup is 13-1-1, with the International's sole victory coming in 1998.

Both teams will therefore be motivated to prevail and put on a show for the fans in attendance and those tuning in from home.

Although it is a matchplay tournament with two teams made up of 12 players, the Presidents Cup does differ from the Ryder Cup.

First of all, it is played over four days instead of three and the format of the matches is different, too.

Unlike the Ryder Cup, which is a race to 14.5 points, the magic number at the Presidents Cup is 15.5, although if it is a tie at 15-15 this year, the US will retain the cup.

However it all shakes out, though, it promises to be a busy week of interesting golf. While tee times have yet to be released, here is the current schedule of events from Medinah.
