About The Presidents Cup
There are three Canadians playing on home soil this weekend – Conners, Taylor Pendrith and Mackenzie Hughes. All three were captain’s picks, selected by International Team captain Mike Weir, another Canadian.
Two years ago, the Quail Hallow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina, hosted the Presidents Cup. The Americans won with 17.5 points to 12.5 to earn their ninth straight victory at the event, dating back to a tie in 2003.
In that event, South Korea’s Sungjae Im teamed with Conners twice in foursomes and lost both. But Im was 2-2-1 overall (his 2.5 points was tied for the best on his team) and he’s the favorite at DraftKings Ontario Sportsbook to lead the International team in scoring this year, at +500 odds.
Conners has +800 odds, or an 11.1% implied probability, to lead the Internationals in points, even though he was 0-4 in his matches at his only other appearance in 2022. Hughes, making his Presidents Cup debut. is at +1100 odds and Pendrith is at +1400 after also going 0-4 in 2022.
This year, Royal Montreal Golf Club hosts the event for the first time since 2007. That year, the U.S. team 19.5-14.5 under captain Jack Nicklaus, who led the Americans to a victory over Gary Player’s squad.
In 2024, Caesars Ontario Sportsbook has the U.S. team as a -265 favorite at this year’s Presidents Cup, with the Internationals listed at +240 and the chance of a tie coming in at +1500 in Montreal.
