At least in Europe, there’s really no comparison. Which is what you would expect when comparing the Ryder Cup and the Presidents Cup. The Old World is strictly neutral when it comes to the match between the United States and the International squad.

Over the last three Presidents Cups, there have been 11 International players who were outside the top 50 that week in the OWGR. Their combined match record is 12-19-5, a point average of 0.47. The bottom three Americans in OWGR in that span have a record of 9-11-11, a points per match rate of 0.65.

Royal Montreal hosted the Presidents Cup in 2007, where the Jack Nicklaus-captained Americans came away with a 19½-14½ victory. Here’s a look at the best photos from the 2024 Presidents Cup at Royal Montreal Golf Club.
