Brian Harman is in Quebec, Canada, to play in the 2024 edition of the prestigious biennial tournament, the Presidents Cup. At the event, Harman will be representing Team USA, captained by Jim Furyk, against the International Team, which is captained by Mike Weir.

On September 25th, Brian Harman was part of a press conference at the Royal Montreal Golf Club, which is hosting the 2024 Presidents Cup. He was asked which teammate would most likely be late to a function. The PGA Tour golfer picked himself and revealed an interesting story.

Brian Harman said:

"Hmm, most likely to be late? I don't know. Everybody has been on time. Probably me, honestly. I think I slept through the rules meeting at the Ryder Cup last year, so I'll say me."

During the press conference, Brian Harman was also asked if he was jealous of any of his teammate's golf swings. The 3-time PGA Tour winner revealed Wyndham Clark's swing is the prettiest of all and also mentioned he was jealous of the power in the swing of Xander Schauffele.

The 2024 season on the PGA Tour ahead of the Presidents Cup was not the best for Harman because he could not win a single tournament. However, he did register three top-10 finishes. He booked his place in the Presidents Cup team courtesy of Jim Furyk, who picked Harman and five other golfers.
