2024 Presidents Cup predictions, odds: Expert picks as United States, International teams battle in Montreal

Will the U.S. extend its nine-event winning streak in the Presidents Cup? Our experts dive into the international showdown

There is a level of nervousness every other year entering the Ryder Cup with Americans wondering whether they will be able to live up to their European counterparts -- especially when not playing on home soil. Such has not been the case with the Presidents Cup as the United States has captured nine straight trophies in the biennial with their International counterparts. This year's showdown will be hosted in Canada at Royal Montreal, and with three Canucks on the International side, there should be plenty of energy from a crowd seeking to knock the U.S. off its game.

The United States enters -285 to win the Presidents Cup with an expected advantage of 3.5 points. The International side is a notable underdog at +270, though it will hope experience and familiarity will help buck a trend of U.S. victories that dates back two decades. In fact, the Internationals have only won once out of 13 playings of the event: that came in 1998 across the globe in Australia.

The 2024 competition sees the Americans boast the two best golfers in the world, Scottie Scheffler and Xander Schauffele, along with a handful of rookies who will look to complete a youth movement for the red, white and blue. Whether that will be enough to hold off the Internationals -- helmed by veteran Adam Scott featuring golfers from Canada, South Korea and Australia (among other locations) -- remains to be seen.
