Captains Jim Furyk and Mike Weir released their Day 1 pairings Wednesday, setting up the Presidents Cup's opening four-ball matches.

Weir sent out the first pairing and opted for the duo of Jason Day and Byeong Hun An. Furyk, who deferred selecting first to Weir, answered with Xander Schauffele and Tony Finau.

The key difference between Presidents Cup pairings and those at the Ryder Cup is that the teams go back and forth in the former, drafting their order this week. In contrast, in the Ryder Cup, the pairings are done blindly.

Here are the five four-ball matchups for Thursday:

Match 1 (11:35 a.m ET): Jason Day and Byeong-Hun An (INT) vs. Xander Schauffele and Tony Finau (USA)

Match 2 (11:53 a.m. ET): Adam Scott and Min Woo Lee (INT) vs. Collin Morikawa and Sahith Theegala (USA)

Match 3 (12:11 p.m.): Tom Kim and Sungjae Im (INT) vs. Scottie Scheffler and Russell Henley (USA)

Match 4 (12:29 p.m.): Taylor Pendrith and Christiaan Bezuidenhout (INT) vs. Keegan Bradley and Wyndham Clark (USA)

Match 5 (12:47 p.m.): Hideki Matsuyama and Corey Conners (INT) vs. Patrick Cantlay and Sam Burns (USA)

The first session of the Presidents Cup begins Thursday at 11:35 a.m. ET.
