Bryson DeChambeau is once again missing from Team USA’s Presidents Cup line-up this week due to his affiliation with LIV Golf.Brandt Snedeker named his captain’s pick for the upcoming 2026 event at Medinah Country Club on September 1.DeChambeau will not be at the 2026 Presidents CupGettyScottie Scheffler, Cameron Young, Wyndham Clark, Sam Burns, Russell Henley and Collin Morikawa have qualified for the team outright and they have been joined by six more names.Veterans Xander Schauffele, Patrick Cantlay and Justin Thomas made the cut as did the in-form Chris Gotterup and Jacob Bridgeman.But Snedeker would have thought long and hard about the final spot on his roster before selecting 21-year-old sensation Jackson Koivun.DeChambeau barred from Snedeker’s team DeChambeau, who won the US Open in 2024 and was T14 at The Open in July, will be a name many fans believe should be on the team for the Americans.But as this event is run by the PGA Tour, it means LIV players are not eligible to compete.And so, DeChambeau won’t be teeing it up at Medinah but his absence may not be a chief concern for Snedeker.While DeChambeau’s bombastic character helped with cheerleading the home crowds and getting President Donald Trump to attend the 2025 Ryder Cup, the two-time major champion played poorly.He played all five matches over the week at Bethpage Black but only secured 1.5 points and failed to beat Matt Fitzpatrick in the Sunday Singles.The International Team, on the other hand, have been hit harder by the ongoing ban on LIV players.Presidents Cup teamsTeam USA – Brandt Snedeker (captain)QualifiersScottie SchefflerCameron YoungWyndham ClarkSam BurnsRussell HenleyCollin MorikawaPicksChris GotterupXander SchauffeleJustin ThomasPatrick CantlayJacob BridgemanJackson KoivunTeam International – Geoff Ogilvy (captain)QualifiersSi-woo KimRyan FoxHideki MatsuyamaMin Woo LeeTom KimAdam ScottPicksCorey ConnorsSung-jae ImRyo HisatsuneNick TaylorNico EchavarriaChristiaan BezuidenhoutIn-form Australians Lucas Herbert and Cameron Smith won’t be involved and neither will the likes of Joaquin Niemann, Louis Oosthuizen, Marc Leishman, Abraham Ancer, Sebastian Munoz, Charl Schwartzel or Carlos Ortiz.Geoff Ogilvy is the International skipper and his team includes Si-woo Kim, Ryan Fox, Hideki Matsuyama, Min Woo Lee, Tom Kim and Adam Scott.Ogilvy has also selected six players to make up his squad with Corey Connors, Sung-jae Im and Nick Taylor among those making the cut.DeChambeau spoke about the ban on LIV players at the Presidents Cup ahead of the 2022 edition, which USA won 17.5 to 12.5 at Quail Hollow.He said: “I personally think that the team events are only hurting themselves by not allowing us to play, not allowing us to qualify through some capacity, in some facet.“I’m a golf fan, first and foremost. I’m going to watch golf wherever it’s played with some of the best players in the world, whoever it is.“I think that this will become something special, even more special than what it is now, and moving forward in the future, I’ll still watch other tournaments that I’ve won and done well at before.”The 2026 Presidents Cup is coming up soonGettyThe 2026 Presidents Cup will take place over four days, starting this Thursday in Illinois.Team USA will be looking for their 11th straight victory in the event but the Internationals have one of their strongest ever squads.Si-Woo Kim is currently ranked 13th in the world, New Zealand’s Fox won The Open recently and Tom Kim is a PGA Tour winner this season.
