It's way to early for me to be thinking about The Presidents Cup. But based on your list, I don't see Adam Scott making the team. But we have about a year.

I see these as unlikely also.

I think Adam Scott is one of the most skilled International players for Presidents Cup. Hes mothership 🙂 

Nieman and Pereira have good chemistry what can help, i think everything is about chemistry in team.

What u think? Deserved LIV players chance to go?  

So and who of new US players u will take ? U think Theegala deserve a spot? 🙂

I think this topic is eight months too early.

Now it's not too early.  Strong US start - 5 pairings out now.

Is it just me?  or does Tony Finau's clubs look just too short for him?

Always kinda looked that way. They're pretty standard length… he's a tall dude though.

The International Team is tanking on putts.

I'm behind and I just saw Xander and Finau miss par putts to hand the Ints a hole.

Tomorrow has foursomes. For me that is the most enjoyable format for these types of events. In my opinion best in sports. Ryder Cup, Solheim Cup and Presidents Cup.

Tom Kim's act is getting old...

Continuing to show his immaturity....going back to the playoffs where he damaged the green when he slammed his putter into it.   And just from yesterday, yelling at a players back when SS was getting ready to putt, and then walking off the green to the next tee box 60 yards away before US team putted.    I know him and SS are good buds but still.    Also not helping that he's blaming the Canadian fans for the International teams' poor performance thus far.

I know he is young but he needs to grow up.

Eh, I'm gonna take the opposite angle on that one, and suggest that Tom Kim has been the only thing giving the event any juice from the International side of things.

I’ll try to phrase this very carefully. Is there a case to be made that the Presidents Cup is a waste of everyone’s time?

Until the International team does something… I don't know about "waste of time" and the surrounding area benefits economically, the players might enjoy it… etc. But it's not super interesting.

Yah, a little over the top barking behind SS's back and walking away before he putted out (that is straight up poor form IMO), etc. Seems to be trying to punch above his weight class. But then on the same note it's hard to stay awake for a couple of hours of telecast outside of this no? The golf is not bad but there's no soul and that's not the player's fault. 

I read something about him 'blaming the Canadian crowd' for their Day 1 plight but that also seems to be a bit of a writer's distortion of what he said as to me it seems he is simply asking the crowds to get a bit more involved. That's fair. Ya' know, the positive, loud energy these type of events need and feed off of. My two cents.

Ehh, it was kinda bad yesterday. Especially from the European side. 

Min Woo Lee, Adam Scott, Sungjae, and Bezuidenhout combined for 4 birdies yesterday... Theegala wasn't good from the US side either.
