On September 13, 2023, an exclusive event was held featuring Presidents' Cup captains Mike Weir and Jim Furyk!
Next year, Montréal will host the 15th edition of the Presidents Cup at The Royal Montreal Golf Club, marking the first time since 2007 the club has been the venue for one of the most prestigious events in sport.
The Presidents Cup is a team-based match-play golf tournament pitting the best players in the United States against their non‑European counterparts, the International Team. Now in its thirtieth decade, the event is a global convergence of thrilling competition, charity, sportsmanship and international goodwill. The Presidents Cup will bring major economic benefits to the city and outstanding international visibility, with golf's iconic players performing on a global stage.
In the run-up to this highly anticipated competition, the Chamber is pleased to welcome to its International Leaders series the Captains for the Presidents Cup – Mike Weir (International Team) and Jim Furyk (U.S. Team). These distinguished players have won major championships and many of the premier events on the PGA TOUR, in addition to making their mark as leaders in the sports world and beyond.
This meeting was a fantastic opportunity to hear about the Presidents Cup, the strategies the captains employ when putting together their teams, and ways in which Montréal can create a thrilling atmosphere on site.
