The Americans Continue Presidents Cup Dominance
After losing the Ryder Cup to Europe last year, the Americans came back strong to win the Presidents Cup for the 10th consecutive time, making the outcome seem inevitable. Xander Schauffele led the charge with four straight birdies on Sunday, setting the tone for a dominant performance by the U.S. team.
Sam Burns, Russell Henley, and Keegan Bradley all played crucial roles in securing the victory. Bradley, who will captain the Ryder Cup team next year, delivered the deciding point when Si Woo Kim missed a birdie putt on the 18th hole. Max Homa also contributed with a key point, sealing the win for the Americans with a 2-and-1 victory.
The victory at Royal Montreal marked the largest margin of victory for the Americans away from home, highlighting their dominance in the competition. Bradley expressed his joy at clinching the victory, reflecting on the significance of the moment in his career.
Despite a valiant effort by the Internationals, they fell short once again, extending their winless streak in the competition. With only one victory since 1998, the Internationals faced a tough challenge against the formidable U.S. team.
Captain Jim Furyk praised his team’s performance, crediting their resilience and teamwork for the victory. The Americans showcased their depth and talent throughout the competition, with players like Schauffele and Burns leading the way.
Although the Internationals fought hard in close matches, they were unable to overcome the American juggernaut. The U.S. team’s winning streak continued, reinforcing their status as the dominant force in the Presidents Cup.
With the next matches set for 2026 at Medinah outside Chicago, the Internationals will have to regroup and strategize for a chance at redemption. As for the Americans, the victory in Montreal solidified their legacy as one of the most successful teams in Presidents Cup history.
