Many of the top players in the world will be part of the fun at Quail Hollow, including World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, Justin Thomas, Jordan Spieth, Sungjae Im and Hideki Matsuyama. because the International team is limited to countries outside of Europe, Rory McIlroy, Matt Fitzpatrick and Jon Rahm are not eligible to play.
Players who have joined LIV Golf are also ineligible, which includes Brooks Koepka, Dustin Johnson, Cameron Smith and Joaquin Niemann. Those defections have hurt the International team more than the Americans, leading to Team USA being a big favorite to win the Cup for the 9th straight time. It was last played in 2019 and pushed back from 2021 because of COVID.
