Captains announced for 2026 Presidents Cup at Medinah: Geoff Ogilvy and Brandt Snedeker
Former U.S. Open champion Geoff Ogilvy of Australia and Brandt Snedeker have been selected as captains for the 2026 Presidents Cup at Medinah, the venerable course in the Chicago suburbs that Ogilvy recently renovated. Ogilvy will head an International team that has won the Presidents Cup just once — in 1998 at Royal Melbourne — since the matches began in 1994. He has been an assistant captain the last four times and played in three straight Presidents Cups. Ogilvy, the 2006 U.S. Open champion at Winged Foot, now devotes a majority of his time to design work with Australia-based OCM. Among its recent work was the renovation of Medinah No. 3, where the Presidents Cup will be played Sept. 24-27, 2026. The two-year project includes larger greens, wider fairways and new routing on the back nine. It reopened last summer. Snedeker played in only one Presidents Cup in 2013 at Muirfield Village along with two Ryder Cups. He has nine career PGA Tour wins and captured the FedEx Cup in 2012. The Americans have won the last 10 times in the Presidents Cup dating to a tie in South Africa in 2003. The International team — players from countries outside the U.S. and Europe — has been gaining ground since taking over more control of its team from the PGA Tour, which owns the event. The U.S. won 18½-11½ last year at Royal Montreal.
