The United States continued its dominance at the Presidents Cup, securing a decisive 18 1/2 to 11 1/2 victory over the International Team at Royal Montreal Golf Club. This marks the 13th U.S. victory in the 15 times the tournament has been held, further solidifying America’s two-decade-long reign over the event.
Xander Schauffele set the tone for the U.S. team on Sunday with an overwhelming 4&3 win over former World No. 1 Jason Day. But it was Keegan Bradley who sealed the deal, outlasting Si Woo Kim to clinch the winning point for the Americans. Bradley’s 1 Up victory on the 18th hole punctuated his personal comeback story after being left off last year’s Ryder Cup squad, a decision that fueled his resurgence and eventual appointment as captain of the 2025 U.S. Ryder Cup team.
The U.S. squad entered the final day with an 11-7 lead after dominating the competition on Thursday and Saturday. Schauffele’s early match set the tone, with other key wins coming from Russell Henley, Patrick Cantlay, and Collin Morikawa.
Despite a few bright spots for the International Team—such as Hideki Matsuyama’s 1 Up win over World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and Corey Conners defeating Tony Finau 5&3—the U.S. team proved too powerful. By the time Bradley clinched the Cup, the American side had already secured its 4 1/2 points for victory, maintaining a commanding lead throughout the day.
This latest triumph continues the United States’ remarkable run of dominance in the Presidents Cup, with the Internationals having won only once, back in 1998. As discussions about the future of the event surface due to the U.S.’s overwhelming advantage, the next showdown is set for 2026 at Medinah Golf Club near Chicago.
For now, Team USA’s supremacy remains unchallenged, leaving fans to celebrate yet another impressive victory.
