Half of the U.S. and International Presidents Cup teams will be finalized after this week’s BMW Championship. The top 6 in points on both sides will be locked in upon the conclusion of the second FedExCup playoff event.
U.S. captain Jim Furyk and International captain Mike Weir will then make their respective six wildcard picks following the Tour Championship.
U.S. points are accrued based on results in PGA Tour events since the start of 2023. International points are based on and mirror the Official World Golf Ranking.
Here’s where things stand on the U.S. side:
- 1. Scottie Scheffler
- 2. Xander Schauffele
- 3. Collin Morikawa
- 4. Wyndham Clark
- 5. Patrick Cantlay
- 6. Sahith Theegala
The top 4 are locked in with Nos. 7-12 on the list having a mathematical chance to take the fifth or sixth spot. Here are those players:
- 7. Tony Finau
- 8. Russell Henley
- 9. Max Homa
- 10. Brian Harman
- 11. Sam Burns
- 12. Akshay Bhatia
All of the above are in the BMW Championship field. Finau can finish no worse than solo third to have a chance at automatically qualifying; Henley through Bhatia must win.
On the International side, here are the top 6 in the standings (world ranking in parentheses):
- 1. Hideki Matsuyama, Japan (6th)
- 2. Tom Kim, Korea (18th)
