Patrick Cantlay and two-time major champion Xander Schauffele were battered by Hideki Matsuyama and Sungjae Im on the second day of the 2024 Presidents Cup.
Golf fans tore into Patrick Cantlay after the American golfer and his teammate Xander Schauffele were battered by Hideki Matsuyama and Sungjae Im on day two of the 2024 Presidents Cup.
Matsuyama and Im put the first point on the board for Mike Weir’s International side with a remarkable 7&6 victory over the American pairing on Friday morning.
Im and the former Masters champion combined for eight birdies in 12 holes in the foursomes.
Cantlay’s performance, in particular, didn’t sit too well with Team USA fans.
He played on day one alongside Sam Burns.
The duo beat Matsuyama and Corey Conners 2&1 as the USA swept the International side 5-0 in the first session.
But Cantlay was nowhere near his best on Friday.
Just check out some of the reaction:

Patrick Cantlay holds so much power in golf for never doing anything and it will never make sense.

If Cantlay & Xander want paid for playing in these things then they should be able to get fined for being 5-down through 8.
