Team USA Leads Presidents Cup 5-0

The United States achieved a remarkable start at the Presidents Cup, leading the International Team 5-0 after the opening day at Royal Montreal Golf Club. Xander Schauffele and Tony Finau secured the first point with a narrow 1-up victory over Jason Day and Byeong Hun An, while Scottie Scheffler and Russell Henley extended the lead with a 3&2 win against Im Sung-jae and Tom Kim. Despite the scoreboard, the International squad showed competitive spirit, marked by playful exchanges and some trash talk between players. The event, which has been described as less dramatic than the Ryder Cup, featured memorable moments, including Mackenzie Hughes energizing the crowd by shotgunning a beer on the first tee. The competition continues with five foursomes matches scheduled for Friday as Team USA aims for their 10th consecutive title.
