Canada’s Taylor Pendrith named captain’s assistant for Presidents Cup
CHICAGO — Taylor Pendrith of Richmond Hill, Ont., has been named a captain’s assistant for the International Team at next month’s Presidents Cup.
Medinah Country Club, 40 kilometres west of Chicago hosts the best-on-best men’s golf tournament between the United States and a team from around the world excluding Europe.
The 35-year-old joins Trevor Immelman, Camilo Villegas and Tim Clark under captain Geoff Ogilvy.
Pendrith has played for the International team twice before.
He made his debut in 2022 at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, N.C., before competing on home soil at Royal Montreal Golf Club in 2024.
Pendrith is still an active player on the PGA Tour, earning two top-10 finishes this season, including a playoff loss at the ISCO Championship on July 12.
He finished 89th in the FedEx Cup standings and did not qualify for the playoffs.
