How many days are the Presidents Cup?
Unlike the three-day Ryder Cup, the Presidents Cup spreads its matches out across four days. The first two days are single five-match sessions followed by a Saturday double session and then Sunday singles. The 30-match schedule is four less than the traditional setup, which had put the deeper American side at an advantage. The different formats create sessions that run different lengths each day, so the schedule switches each and every day in Jersey City.
How many points are there in the final session of the Ryder Cup?
The traditional Sunday finish will feature 12 head-to-head singles matches. With 12 of the 30 points out there in the final session, there is the opportunity for a dramatic comeback. We've seen that in the Ryder Cup and Solheim Cup in recent years, but the Internationals had not been able to manage a comparable charge after huge holes during the two-man sessions — until 2015.
How many points are there in the Ryder Cup?
While the Ryder Cup features just 28 points and matches, the Presidents Cup had been a much heftier 34-point event. Price got it cut down to 30 (he wanted 28) which is a boost for the International side because they're not nearly as deep as the Americans and can hide some of their weaker players in the early sessions. In the past, the full 12-man team had to play six-match sessions in the first two days. Those are now five-match sessions and Saturday's double session has just four matches in the morning and afternoon (used to be five each). It's one way this could potentially become more competitive. The 2015 event was the Internationals narrowest loss in years, as it came down to just one point.
How many yards is the Barclays golf course?
Aside from breathtaking views, the course combines rolling hills, water hazards, and limited treescapes over a 7,353-yard track.

While it may not be a major-level course, it’ll look great on camera and attract a rowdy New York City crowd.
