Scottie Scheffler and Xander Schauffele will lead the United States at the Presidents Cup in Montreal this week.

The United States has won all but one of the biannual events since the competition began in 1994.

The Presidents Cup pits Team USA against golfers from Canada, Mexico, Asia and Africa.

Team play dominates the schedule, but unlike the Ryder Cup's three-day format, the Presidents Cup spans four days with the same amount of matches.

Presidents Cup Rules

The Presidents Cup takes place from Thursday-Sunday at Royal Montreal Golf Club.
