2022 Presidents Cup scores, results: Live coverage, standings, golf updates, schedule for Day 1 on Thursday
The 2022 Presidents Cup has shown up. Following some serious time player-association arrangement debates, list arranging by the chiefs and babble about how to zest this occasion up from now on, there is really golf to be played. While many are foreseeing a US victory, the sorcery of group golf at this level is that it quite often feels nearer than it is for longer than it ought to.
That wasn’t the case in 2017 when the U.S. side absolutely waxed the International team, but hopefully, with an amalgamation of big hitters, young stars and an us-against-the-world attitude, we get a Presidents Cup that’s at least interesting through most of Sunday’s singles matches. If you’re looking for where the event could turn, you don’t need to look past the first day. The U.S. has owned the International side in foursome matches over the last 15 years, doing the majority of their damage within this particular format. If that happens again — there’s no reason to believe it won’t — the red, white and blue will likely be off to the races.
