A combination of intangibles and data-driven analysis has Corey Conners thinking the International team is due at this year's Presidents Cup.
Conners, from Listowel, Ont., is one of three Canadians donning the black and gold of the International team for this week's Presidents Cup at Royal Montreal Golf Club.
The United States has historically dominated the best-on-best tournament that sees 12 Americans face 12 players from around the world, excluding Europe, in match play. "I think everybody on our team knows we've been trending in the right direction.
We've got a good plan in place," said Conners after a practice round on Tuesday. "We can definitely do it. "They've had our number in the Presidents Cup, but I think everyone on the team, the captains, are instilling a lot of belief in us." The 32-year-old Conners also played in 2022 when the Internationals lost to the Americans 17 1/2 to 12 1/2 at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, N.C.
