Two are locked in. There's now 10 to go.
On Monday, the PGA Tour announced that Scottie Scheffler, fresh off his 21st win at the FedEx St. Jude Championship, has clinched the No. 1 spot on the U.S. roster for the 2026 Presidents Cup.
Further, Cameron Young has secured the No. 2 position, meaning there are now 10 spots up for grabs in the biennial competition between the U.S. and a team of International golfers.
This week's BMW Championship will be the final chance for PGA Tour golfers to snag one of the four remaining automatic spots. The next four in the updated Presidents Cup standings are:
- Sam Burns
- Russell Henley
- Ben Griffin
- Collin Morikawa
After that, U.S. captain Brandt Snedeker will have six captain's selections
to make. The 2026 Presidents Cup will be Sept. 22-27 in Chicago at Medinah Country Club's Course No. 3. The U.S. leads the series 13-1-1.
The International team, captained by Australia's Geoff Ogilvy, hasn't had anyone lock up an automatic spot yet, but the top six in the current standings are:
- Si Woo Kim
- Ryan Fox
- Hideki Matsuyama
- Min Woo Lee
- Tom Kim
- Adam Scott
Ogilvy will then round out his team with his captain's selections at the conclusion of the Tour Championship, Aug. 27-30.
