Presidents Cup Sunday Singles: 12 matches decide the cup at Medinah Course No. 3

Why this Sunday matters

Sunday 27 September delivers the final chapter of the 16th Presidents Cup on Medinah Country Club’s Course No. 3. Twelve points are at stake across 12 individual matches, leaving no room for teammates to bail each other out. The first team to 15.5 points lifts the trophy.

What actually happened

PGA Tour and PresidentsCup.com confirmed the singles pairings released late Saturday evening by Captains Brandt Snedeker and Geoff Ogilvy. Following a punishing 36-hole Moving Day double session that tested player stamina around Medinah’s expansive redesign, the stage is set for an epic finale.

Match 1 sets the tone as world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler faces former Masters champion Hideki Matsuyama. In Match 2, Patrick Cantlay squares off against Australian veteran Adam Scott, who is playing in his record-tying 12th Presidents Cup. Match 3 features Xander Schauffele against South Korea’s Sungjae Im, followed by Collin Morikawa versus Min Woo Lee.

Medinah’s newly restored layout has punished errant drives all week, with heavy rough and complex greens separating good shots from great ones. With 12 matches rolling out every 11 minutes, the leaderboard will shift with every birdie putt.

What to watch next

The United States has never lost a Presidents Cup on home soil. Can Geoff Ogilvy’s International squad pull off one of the greatest upsets in modern golf history, or will Team USA close out another victory in Chicago?
