Brandt Snedeker, Geoff Ogilvy named Presidents Cup captains - ESPN

American golfer Brandt Snedeker and Australia's Geoff Ogilvy have been named captains for next year's Presidents Cup at Medinah Country Club outside Chicago, the PGA Tour announced Tuesday.

The 16th Presidents Cup will be played at Medinah Country Club's Course No. 3 on Sept. 22-27, 2026.

«It's a tremendous honor to be named U.S. team captain for the 2026 Presidents Cup by my peers, and I'm looking forward to leading our guys into Medinah for what will certainly be an amazing week of golf,» Snedeker said in a statement. «Representing my country in team competition has been a highlight of my PGA Tour career, and I will lean on those experiences to ensure we are prepared and ready to compete against what I know will be a unified and determined International Team.»

The U.S. team has dominated the Presidents Cup since its inception in 1994 with a 13-1-1 record against the International team, which includes golfers from around the world outside of Europe.

The American squad won 18 ½ — 11 ½ at Royal Montreal Golf Club in Canada in September in the most recent edition.

«Since Ernie Els debuted the shield in 2019, the International Team's spirit has intensified and grown as we have rallied around this symbol which embodies our shared ambition and unifies both players and fans,» Ogilvy said. «I intend to carry that momentum forward, just as the captains before me have, to build strong support for our international players in the lead up and throughout the event.»

Snedeker, a nine-time winner on tour, competed in the 2013 Presidents Cup and was a captain's assistant in 2024. He'll serve as a vice captain in this year's Ryder Cup, which will be played Sept. 25-28 at Bethpage Black Course in Farmingdale, New York.
