The Ryder Cup is now in full swing.
The 2025 Ryder Cup is the 45th edition of golf’s premier biennial team competition, pitting the United States (host) against Europe in a showcase of match play, strategy, and continental pride.
This tournament carries extra weight: Europe enters as the defending champion after its 2023 victory, while the U.S. seeks to harness the home‐course advantage.
Over three days, 28 points are on the line through formats including foursomes, four-ball, and final-day singles matches. A total of 14½ points is needed for an outright win, though if Europe reaches 14 points, it retains the Cup.
Captains Keegan Bradley (USA) and Luke Donald (Europe) lead their squads into what promises to be a tense, high-stakes battle, with passionate crowds, dramatic matches, and national pride all riding on every stroke.
