The 2025 Ryder Cup guarantees to be one of the vital thrilling in history as Team Europe look to beat their American rivals in Recent York.
Luke Donald led Europe to a dominant win over USA in Rome in September 2023, which followed on from the American’s one-sided victory in Whistling Straits two years prior.
The last Ryder Cup was stuffed with drama and controversy off the course in addition to a number of world-class motion on it.
The house side has had a definite advantage in recent tournaments but Europe, spearheaded by latest Grand Slam champion Rory McIlroy, will hope to vary that this autumn.
McIlroy, superb in Italy, will lead his side once more alongside the likes of Tommy Fleetwood, Ludvig Aberg and, hopefully, Jon Rahm.
But Team USA might be laden with top talent, with Scottie Scheffler, Xander Schauffele and Bryson DeChambeau set to make up their side.

Ryder Cup 2025: The course
Bethpage Black will play to a par 71 and a frightening length of seven,426 yards.
The infamous Recent York track is thought to be one of the vital brutal on this planet and even comes with a warning on the primary tee of ‘The Black Course is a particularly difficult course which we recommend just for highly expert golfers’.
It has held three major championships – most recently the 2019 PGA Championship, which was won by Brooks Koepka.
At that tournament, only six players finished the week under par while Andrew Filbert, a PGA Assistant Skilled from Florida, missed the cut at 26-over for the opening two days.
While it can likely be arrange barely easier for the Ryder Cup than major championship weeks, Bethpage Black will still be a demanding test with its narrow fairways, deep roughs, and heavy bunkering.
Many matches may very well be selected the fifteenth hole which is nicknamed ‘The Beast’.

Ryder Cup 2025: What has been said?
Grand Slam champion McIlroy was a part of the European team that secured the ‘Miracle at Medinah’ on US soil in 2012.
An away team has not won since then and McIlroy is desperate to take the fight to the Americans in Recent York.
Following victory in Rome, he said: “I’ve said this for the last probably six or seven years to anyone that may listen – I believe considered one of the most important accomplishments in golf without delay is winning an away Ryder Cup.
“And that is what we’ll do at Bethpage.
“I’m so proud to be a part of this team. Incredible day, incredible week with all these guys.
“We were hurting after Whistling Straits and the players on that team desired to redeem ourselves and prove to the world that isn’t who we’re.
“We delivered a terrific performance.”
