MONTREAL, Quebec, Canada – With 64 days to go until the Presidents Cup returns to The Royal Montreal Golf Club in Montreal, Canada, Russell Henley moved up five spots to No. 7 in the U.S. Team standings following a solo-fifth-place finish at the Open Championship, where Xander Schauffele earned his second major championship title of the season.

Henley, a four-time winner on the PGA TOUR, entered the week at Royal Troon with a career-best five top-10 finishes to his name in 2024, including three fourth-place efforts. The former University of Georgia standout opened his week with rounds of 69-75 before posting a 5-under 66 on Saturday prior to rain and gusty winds coming in for players competing in the later tee times.

On Sunday, Henley played steady golf throughout much of the round, posting two birdies against 16 pars for a 2-under 69, good for a 5-under 279 total – four shots back of Schauffele.

“I feel like I had a chance most of the day. It was just great to feel like I was in control of my game under pressure, feeling uncomfortable in an uncomfortable style of golf I haven't really played well before, so just gives me a lot of confidence,” said Henley.

The finish, which marked just his third career top-10 in 40 major championship appearances, pushed the 35-year-old from No. 12 to No. 7 in the U.S. Team standings for the 2024 Presidents Cup, where he is hoping to make his professional debut in international team competition.

For Schauffele, the victory cemented his spot on the U.S. Team and kept him at No. 2 in the standings, trailing only Scottie Scheffler. The 30-year-old, who now owns nine victories on TOUR, has compiled a 6-3-0 record in two prior appearances in the Presidents Cup, 2019 and 2022.

The 2024 U.S. Team will be comprised of six (6) automatic qualifiers and six (6) Captain’s picks, with a weighted system based on FedExCup Points from January 1, 2023, through August 25, 2024. The automatic qualifiers will be the top six eligible U.S. players in the OWGR after completion of the 2024 BMW Championship.

For the International Team, Sungjae Im posted a T7 at the Open Championship for his best major finish since a T2 at the 2020 Masters Tournament. Im moved from No. 3 to No. 2 in the standings and will be looking to make his third Presidents Cup team, where he has compiled a 5-3-2 record.

Over the last two weeks, the biggest move has come from 10-time International Team member Adam Scott, who has climbed from No. 16 to No. 6 thanks to runner-up and T10 finishes at the Genesis Scottish Open and Open Championship, respectively.

The 44-year-old made his Presidents Cup debut in 2003, represented the International Team in 2007 at The Royal Montreal Golf Club, and has recorded an all-time record of 18-25-6 in the event.

The 2024 International Team will be comprised of six (6) automatic qualifiers and (6) Captain’s picks, with the Official World Golf Ranking (OWGR) being used to determine the former. The automatic qualifiers will be the top six eligible international players in the OWGR after completion of the 2024 BMW Championship.
