Tour announces changes to Presidents Cup format

The PGA Tour announced changes to the format of the Presidents Cup on Monday, revisions that will go into effect with the matches later this year in South Korea.

The total number of matches will be reduced from 34 to 30, which remains slightly higher than the 28 matches contested at the Ryder Cup. While in previous years there were six four-ball and six foursome matches across the first two days of the Presidents Cup - meaning each player on the 12-man rosters had to play both days - there will now be five matches per day.
