PRESIDENTS CUP
A team representing the United States competes in a series of golf matches against an international team representing the rest of the world, except Europe, for the Presidents Cup. A comparable but much older competition between Europe and the United States is the Ryder Cup.
Since 1994, the Presidents Cup has been held every two years. The Ryder Cup was initially held in odd numbered years, and it was held in even numbered years. The Presidents Cup was then held in odd-numbered years as a result of the 2001 Ryder Cup being postponed because of the September 11 attacks. Following the cancellation of the 2020 Ryder Cup due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it changed back to even-numbered years. The International Team’s member nations alternating hosting it with the United States.
A unique logo and flag are flown during competitions by the international squad.
The following Presidents Cup will take place at Charlotte, North Carolina’s Quail Hollow Club from September 19–25, 2022.
