Right, rather than slot 1-12 on each side, then reveal each match-up, they do it as described. I'm pretty confident the Captains will be encouraged by the players themselves, the media, and their respective governing bodies to ensure a World #1 vs. World #2 match-up.

That seems logical, but then again, when looking at the other players, it's not like there aren't a whole lot of good possible matchups.  I mean, I'm not going to be complaining much if we see Day vs. DJ or Bubba or Rickie.  Or Spieth vs. Danny Lee or Hideki.

Coin flip to be honest. Which is what's awesome about this "rivalry." Although its not as much of a rivalry as I'd like because they are both too nice of guys. I think for a rivalry to really blossom there needs to be some animosity b/t the two. But between Jordan, Day, and Rory they all seem to be each other's biggest fans almost so as of right now its not as intense as it could be. That could change though.

If Jason Day and Jordan Spieth play each other in singles at the Presidents Cup next week, who do you think wins and why. Also what do you think the score of the match will be?

I think we should all just celebrate seeing the two top players in the world square off against each other.  I am rooting for the US side and I wouldn't care whatsoever who won.  I just want to see that match.  We never got to see the Scott v. Woods match up, or Rory v. Woods type battles.  I think we as a golf community would all benefit from seeing the two top players in the world battle it out.  I think the captains of both teams should recognize that and make it happen!

I voted Speith, but think the chances will be very similar to the current result of this poll--50-50. It could go either way, and likely to extra holes. If one is off, it could be a 3 and 2 or 2 and 1. If they are both on it could be 4-6 extra holes.

Pres. Cup pairings are different than Ryder Cup. They will face off in singles, no doubt about it.

Good call once again! :-P

Yup, missed the boat on this one but I can't argue with Price's thought process.  Spieth was lighting it up and he wanted to put his big guy against a lesser foe.  Leishman took care of business but that was unexpected.

Was a fun event.

    • Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.  
    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
