Then the Americans won nine of the 12 singles and halved another: Young, Thomas, Scheffler, Gotterup, Morikawa, Cantlay, Koivun, Bridgeman and Schauffele all won, Henley halved with Nick Taylor, and only Tom Kim and Sungjae Im took points for the Internationals.

Internationals sweep the foursomes, lead 7-3
A 5-0 session for the International team. Corey Conners and Nick Taylor beat Scheffler and Burns 1 up, Im and Matsuyama beat Henley and Bridgeman 3 and 2, Fox and Min Woo Lee edged Morikawa and Clark 1 up, Scott and Bezuidenhout beat Thomas and Young 3 and 2, and the Kims beat Cantlay and Schauffele 4 and 3.
That turns a 3-2 deficit into a 7-3 International lead. Saturday brings four four-balls in the morning and four foursomes in the afternoon, with TV coverage from 12:00 GMT. 20 points remain and 15½ wins the Cup. [Full story](/news/internationals-sweep-friday-foursomes-presidents-cup/).
Internationals ahead in three foursomes
The International team lead three of Friday's five foursomes at Medinah and are behind in none. Sungjae Im and Hideki Matsuyama are 2 up through 10 on Russell Henley and Jacob Bridgeman, Adam Scott and Christiaan Bezuidenhout are 2 up through 7 on Justin Thomas and Cameron Young, and Tom Kim and Si Woo Kim are 1 up through 7 on Patrick Cantlay and Xander Schauffele.
The top match, Scottie Scheffler and Sam Burns against Corey Conners and Nick Taylor, is all square through 11, as is Collin Morikawa and Wyndham Clark against Ryan Fox and Min Woo Lee through 9. The United States still lead 3-2 overall, but on the official projection the Internationals would go into Saturday 6-4 up if things finished as they stand. Official scoring.
USA edge the opening session 3-2
The Americans lead 3-2 after Thursday's four-balls. Scottie Scheffler and Sam Burns won the swing match 1 up over Min Woo Lee and Sungjae Im: Burns stuffed his approach to two feet on the 14th to square it, the Internationals bogeyed the 17th, and Im's 40-footer for a half on the last hit the back of the cup and hopped out. Justin Thomas and Jackson Koivun beat Corey Conners and Nico Echavarría 4 and 3, taking Thomas to 7-0-0 in Presidents Cup four-balls, and Wyndham Clark and Collin Morikawa never trailed in a 3 and 2 win over Adam Scott and Ryan Fox.
The Internationals' points came from Hideki Matsuyama and Ryo Hisatsune, 3 and 1 winners over Cameron Young and Xander Schauffele, and Tom Kim and Si Woo Kim, who beat Chris Gotterup and Patrick Cantlay 3 and 2. Friday's foursomes start at 18:05 GMT (13:05 local): Scheffler/Burns v Conners/Nick Taylor, Russell Henley/Jacob Bridgeman v Im/Matsuyama, Morikawa/Clark v Fox/Lee, Thomas/Young v Scott/Christiaan Bezuidenhout, and Cantlay/Schauffele v the Kims. Koivun, Gotterup, Hisatsune and Echavarría sit out. Official scoring.
Brandt Snedeker’s United States team and Geoff Ogilvy’s Internationals, drawn from everywhere in the world except Europe, meet at Medinah Country Club’s No. 3 Course outside Chicago from Thursday 24 to Sunday 27 September for the 16th Presidents Cup, with 12 players a side.
Medinah No. 3 was reworked by Ogilvy’s design firm, OCM, in a project unveiled in 2024. Snedeker has his own history here: he played in the 2012 Ryder Cup at Medinah, when Europe came from behind on Sunday.
Thirty points over four days
Thirty points are available across five sessions, and the first team to 15½ wins the Cup.
- Thursday: five four-ball matches (better ball)
- Friday: five foursomes matches (alternate shot)
- Saturday: two sessions
- Sunday: 12 singles
With 12 players and only ten spots in each team session, two players per side sit out every session until Sunday.
Snedeker’s and Ogilvy’s 12
United States (captain Brandt Snedeker): Scottie Scheffler, Cameron Young, Wyndham Clark, Sam Burns, Russell Henley, Collin Morikawa, Chris Gotterup, Xander Schauffele, Justin Thomas, Jacob Bridgeman, Patrick Cantlay and Jackson Koivun.
International (captain Geoff Ogilvy): Si Woo Kim, Ryan Fox, Hideki Matsuyama, Min Woo Lee, Tom Kim, Adam Scott, Corey Conners, Nico Echavarría, Sungjae Im, Ryo Hisatsune, Nick Taylor and Christiaan Bezuidenhout.
Ten straight US wins, and a 21-year-old debutant
- Ten in a row. The United States are the holders and have won the last ten editions, leading the series 13-1-1. The Internationals’ only win came in Australia in 1998; the 2003 match in South Africa was tied.
- A 21-year-old debutant. Jackson Koivun turned professional in the summer, won the 3M Open in his third PGA TOUR start, and is making his Presidents Cup debut.
- Foursomes as the leveller. At Royal Montreal in 2024 the Internationals lost the opening session 5-0, then won all five foursomes matches on Friday to draw level.
