Notes: The Americans have only lost once since the matches against the International team began in 1994. There was one tie in South Africa in 2003. … Adam Scott is playing in his 12th consecutive Presidents Cup, tying the record set by Phil Mickelson. … Geoff Ogilvy is more than just the International captain. His design company, OCM, did a complete makeover of Medinah. … Jackson Koivun is the first player since Jordan Spieth in 2013 to start a year without a PGA Tour card and be selected for the Presidents Cup. … Three players at the Presidents Cup were not even born the last time the Internationals won in 1998. … The Americans do not have the entire team inside the top 25 in the world for the first time since 2017 because of Koivun (No. 57) and Patrick Cantlay (No. 28). … Medinah also hosted the Ryder Cup in 2012 when the Americans lost a 10-6 lead going into the final day. … Medinah also is where Tiger Woods twice won the PGA Championship.<\/p>\n
