⛳ The United States win the Presidents Cup 17-13 at Medinah.
From 10.5-7.5 down, they took 9.5 of the 12 singles points, the biggest final-day comeback in the event’s history.
The United States have won the 2026 Presidents Cup 17-13 at Medinah Country Club, and for three days it looked like the result would go the other way. The Internationals led 10.5-7.5 going into Sunday’s singles, the first time they had taken a lead into the final day on American soil. They needed five points from twelve matches. They got two and a half.
The Americans won nine singles and halved one. Their 9.5 points is the most any side has taken in a Presidents Cup singles session, it produced the biggest final-day comeback in the event’s history, and it made it eleven wins in a row for the United States. Every match from all four days is on our Presidents Cup page.

How the Americans won it
The Internationals built their lead on Friday. After losing Thursday’s four-balls 3-2, they swept the foursomes 5-0 to lead 7-3, and on Saturday they split the afternoon foursomes 2-2 after losing the morning four-balls 2.5-1.5. That kept a three-point lead into the singles, which is where the US team is strongest and where this event has been decided for most of its history.
Sunday was one-way traffic. Cameron Young beat Ryo Hisatsune 3&2 in the opening match, Justin Thomas won 5&3 against Corey Conners and Scottie Scheffler beat Nico Echavarría 2&1. Tom Kim and Im Sung-jae won the only International points, and Nick Taylor halved with Russell Henley. Jacob Bridgeman beat Min Woo Lee 1 up in the tenth match to clinch the Cup.

The standout players
Tom Kim was the best player of the week on either side, with 4 points from five matches (4-1-0). He won all three of his team matches with Kim Si-woo before Saturday afternoon, then beat Wyndham Clark 3&2 in the singles. Kim Si-woo finished with 3 points.
For the United States, Scottie Scheffler (3-1-0), Chris Gotterup (3-1-0) and Cameron Young (3-2-0) led the scoring with three points each, and Jackson Koivun was the only player on either team to go unbeaten, with two wins and a half. Wyndham Clark, the US Open champion, won once in five matches.
How the Australians went
Min Woo Lee took 2.5 points from five matches (2-2-1). Both of his wins came in foursomes with Ryan Fox, including a 1-up win over Collin Morikawa and Wyndham Clark on Friday, and he halved his Saturday four-ball with Im Sung-jae. His singles defeat to Bridgeman was the match that decided the Cup. His form and schedule are on our Min Woo Lee page.
Adam Scott, in his 12th Presidents Cup, won one of his four matches, the Friday foursomes with Christiaan Bezuidenhout, and lost 2&1 to Patrick Cantlay in the singles. Geoff Ogilvy’s side came closer than any International team has on American soil, but the record now reads United States 14, Internationals 1, with one tie.
How our read went
We said this was an event for session and match markets rather than the outright, and that the Internationals’ session prices were the more interesting side of the book. That held on Friday, when they swept the foursomes 5-0 at outsider prices. It did not hold on Sunday: we noted that a three-point deficit is recoverable with twelve singles to play, and the United States did exactly that.
What it means
The United States have now won eleven Presidents Cups in a row, and the singles remain the session the Internationals have not solved. The next edition is in 2028 at Kingston Heath in Melbourne, the fourth Presidents Cup in Melbourne and the first there since Royal Melbourne in 2019. For Australian golf fans, the home summer comes first: the Australian PGA Championship (26 to 29 November) and the Australian Open (3 to 6 December).
