Team USA pulled off a dramatic comeback at the 2026 Presidents Cup, but the final 17–13 score doesn’t tell the whole story.

After struggling through the team sessions and entering Sunday singles trailing the International Team 10.5–7.5, the Americans came roaring back. We break down what went wrong early, Brandt Snedeker’s decisions as captain, Scottie Scheffler’s response after being benched Saturday afternoon, Cara Banks’ post-match interview, and why America’s success in singles doesn’t necessarily settle the debate over U.S. team golf.

We also discuss President Donald Trump’s appearance at Medinah, his time alongside PGA Tour CEO Brian Rolapp, and Trump’s trip to Durant, Oklahoma just days later.

Was Sunday’s comeback proof that the criticism of Team USA was overblown, or did the Americans win despite serious problems in the team formats? Tell us what you think in the comments.

The U.S. Open is one of golf’s toughest and most historic championships, but what makes it truly special is right there in the name: it is open.
