Presidents Cup is trending — how is it actually different from the Ryder Cup?
I don't follow golf seriously, but Presidents Cup searches are spiking and I keep confusing it with the Ryder Cup. Can someone give me the rundown: who plays whom, what format (match play? team sessions?), how the points work, and whether it's historically competitive or a foregone conclusion? Basically: is it worth my Sunday afternoon or is this the exhibition it sounds like?

- Sunday singles on free broadcast — don't pay a cent
Name the thing: watch the Sunday singles and nothing else. It's match play, the final day is the one-on-one matches, and that's where the Cup actually gets decided — the team sessions are filler for golf diehards. Check the broadcast schedule on the official site first: Sunday coverage is usually on free TV or free streaming, so your total cost is zero and your time investment is one afternoon. If it's a blowout by noon, turn it off.
