PRESIDENTS CUP PREDICTIONS

The United States has dominated this event over the years. However, the International Team is improving with the emergence of Day and Matsuyama. Both teams bring a lot of rookies into the mix. The International Team has four while the United States features six. However, the US rookies are guys that are playing very well, like Justin Thomas. The United States may be as talented as ever. Over a 4-day event, it’s hard to see the International Team out-playing the Americans. Stick with the favorites on their home base.
