Top American Rookie Odds & Pick

Top American Rookie	Odds
Chris Gotterup	+135
Jackson Koivun	+165

Top American Wildcard	Odds
Xander Schauffele	+275
Patrick Cantlay	+275
Justin Thomas	+375
Chris Gotterup	+450
Other Selections	+650 & Bigger

Team USA haven’t been the best in team competitions in recent years, highlighted by their loss in last year’s Ryder Cup. However, Patrick Cantlay was one of the few players who excelled in the loss against Team Europe last year, winning one of his foursomes matches. Therefore, he could present the value play when assessing the Top American Wildcard.

• Best Pick: Patrick Cantlay (-275)

Top International Rookie Odds & Pick

Top International Rookie	Odds
Ryan Fox	+185
Nick Taylor	+250
Ryo Hisatsune	+275

Ryan Fox looks like the outstanding play to be the Top International Rookie at this year’s Presidents Cup. The New Zealander made the cut in 17 of his 19 starts on the PGA Tour this season, winning once and finishing in the top ten on three occasions. His recent form is also solid, having won The Open and finishing 26^th at the TOUR Championship. 

• Best Pick: Ryan Fox (+185)

Top International Wildcard	Odds
Sungjae Im	+250
Ryo Hisatsune	+425
Nick Taylor	+450
Corey Conners	+450
Other Selections	+500 & Bigger

Sungjae Im could be a vulnerable favorite in the Top International Wildcard market. Corey Conners typically brings his A-Game to the Presidents Cup, reflected in the previous edition of the tournament when he recorded a joint-team high of two wins from his five matches. The Canadian has also been in reliable recent form, making the cut on his last three starts, which includes a T20 finish at the Rocket Classic at the start of August.

• Best Pick: Corey Conners (+450)
