The 2026 PGA Tour season may be in the books, but there is still one big men's golf event left this season: the Presidents Cup.

While it doesn't quite bring the fanfare of the Ryder Cup, the Presidents Cup is still a fascinating battle between the best that American golf has to offer against the rest of the world outside of Europe.

The United States has dominated this event throughout its existence. In fact, the International Team has won just once, back in 1998 at Royal Melbourne in Australia. Overall, the United States is 13-1-1 in the Presidents Cup.

The automatic qualifiers have been locked in for both teams, so we already know six of the 12 golfers on each team's roster. We'll find out the six captains' picks on Tuesday. Before we do, let's take a look at the rosters so far, along with the odds of winning the 2026 edition of the event.

Team USA is set as a -400 favorite, which is an implied probability of 80% of winning for the 13th straight time. The United States won 18.5-11.5 in 20245 and 17.5-12.5 in 2022. 2019 saw the closest competition in recent history, with the United States winning by a score of 16-14.
