Presidents Cup Golf 2024 – Day 3 Fourballs Tips and Betting Preview

It is moving day at the Presidents Cup on Saturday when two sessions of golf will be played out by the Internationals and USA in Montreal as we determine the position of the competition heading into the singles on Sunday.

Internationals came roaring back at USA in the Friday foursomes winning the lot to tie the score at 5-5 heading into the Saturday morning fourball matches. There are foursomes in the afternoon but time restrictions will deny us the chance to cover those but we’ll go through the fourballs here.

Adam Scott & Taylor Pendrith vs Scottie Scheffler & Collin Morikawa

Match tee off at 12.02 BST

The opening match of a busy day on Saturday sees one of the successful Internationals pairing up again when Adam Scott and Taylor Pendrith look to build on their foursomes win when they go up against Scottie Scheffler and Collin Morikawa.

Scott and Pendrith combined to shoot four under par in the foursomes on Friday and now they go up against Scheffler and Morikawa in good spirits. It remains to be seen what sort of shape the American pair are in after both were taken to the cleaners in the foursomes on Friday and it isn’t necessarily a pairing you would have expected to see at the start of the week. This should be a tee to green masterclass of a match and you would imagine that the team who keep two balls in play the most and putt the best will win. There isn’t a recognised reliable putter here though so I’ll sit this one out.

Corey Conners & Mackenzie Hughes vs Tony Finau & Xander Schauffele

Match tees off at 12.20 BST

The second match out onto the golf course sees the Canadian pairing of Corey Conners and Mackenzie Hughes looking to follow up their foursomes win on Friday when they take on the impressive winners of the opening day in Xander Schauffele and Tony Finau.

The American pair teamed up well in this format on Thursday and will be confident of a further success in this match because they are going to be hitting much shorter irons into the greens than their Canadian opponents so if they putt well then Finau and Schauffele should take a fair bit of beating. That said, Hughes and Conners will have a big crowd behind them in this match and that might spur them on to good things. This feels like a trappy match so I’ll leave this one alone.

Si Woo Kim & Tom Kim vs Keegan Bradley & Wyndham Clark

Match tees at 12.38 BST

The penultimate match of the third session of the competition sees the Korean pair of Si Woo Kim and Tom Kim who inspired the team when together in this session two years ago taking on the American duo of Keegan Bradley and Wyndham Clark.

Bradley and Clark were also winners on the opening day but there was an element of them hanging on a little in that match so I wonder if they will be a little vulnerable here. Bradley sat out the foursomes on Friday while Clark got his backside handed to him alongside Tony Finau so his confidence might have taken a bit of a hammering. Tom Kim also missed the foursomes on Friday while Si Woo Kim saw off Scheffler and Henley alongside Byeong-hun An so he should be feeling good. This is a feisty Korean pairing and I think they will be bang up for this one. I think this is the Internationals best chance of a win on Saturday morning and will take them to do just that.

Hideki Matsuyama & Sungjae Im vs Sam Burns & Patrick Cantlay

Match tees off at 12.56 BST

The final match of fourballs in the 2024 Presidents Cup could well be one of the best ones as the pairing of Hideki Matsuyama and Sungjae Im who set all records on Friday go up against the leading American pair from the opening day in Sam Burns and Patrick Cantlay.

The Asian duo played some incredible golf to wallop Cantlay and Xander Schauffele 7&6 on Friday and they will be out to get the better of Cantlay here albeit alongside a different partner. Cantlay and Burns were very good on the opening day though and both putted well and that would be the concern over the Asian pair for me. It isn’t like they can’t putt well but you wonder if they will do. We know they will light up the course from tee to green though. The problem is so will Burns and Cantlay. I suspect the Americans might win this but after the Friday they had I’m happy to leave them alone.
