After a three-year hiatus, the Presidents Cup is back in action.
Normally held biennially on odd-numbered years, the Presidents Cup schedule was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic after the Americans won the 2019 matches in thrilling fashion, 16-14, at Royal Melbourne Golf Club in Australia. The return of the matches between the United States and the Internationals has been largely impacted by LIV Golf after numerous players with a case for qualification joined the upstart circuit led by Greg Norman and backed by the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia.
With the four-day event set to begin at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina, here’s everything you need to know for the 2022 Presidents Cup.
