Day 3 of the 2019 Presidents Cup continues on Saturday in Melbourne, Friday night in North America.
The morning wave consisted of four four-ball matches. The afternoon matches will go back to the foursomes format. As they did this morning, each team will field four pairs.
Here are the pairings, as announced by U.S. Captain Tiger Woods and International Captain Ernie Els:
Dustin Johnson, Gary Woodland (U.S.) vs. Louis Oosthuizen, Adam Scott (International)
Justin Thomas, Rickie Fowler (U.S.) vs. Marc Leishman, Abraham Ancer (International)
Xander Schauffele, Patrick Cantlay (U.S.) vs. Cameron Smith, Sungjae Im (International)
Matt Kuchar, Tony Finau (U.S.) vs. Byeong-Hun An, Joaquin Niemann (International)
That means Woods will again not play. Joining him on the sidelines will be Bryson DeChambeau, Patrick Reed and Webb Simpson.
The Internationals will not play Haotong Li, Adam Hadwin and C.T. Pan.
