Before the opening tee shot, the championship banner will be raised to the rafters, followed by the match in the familiar format of Triples and Singles. Both teams begin with three Hammers, and Atlanta will tee off first. The lineups feature familiar names: Cameron Young, Matt Fitzpatrick, and Xander Schauffele for New York; Patrick Cantlay, Lucas Glover, and Billy Horschel for Atlanta.
