Ryder Cup 2025: TV Schedule, Teams, and How to Watch

The Stage is Set at Bethpage Black

One of the most electrifying events in sports has returned as the 45th Ryder Cup tees off from September 26-28, 2025. This year, the notoriously challenging Black Course at Bethpage State Park in Farmingdale, New York, plays host to the biennial showdown between Team USA and Team Europe. The atmosphere is expected to be electric, with American fans eager to leverage their home-field advantage.

Team USA, led by Captain Keegan Bradley, is on a mission for redemption. After a decisive 16.5 to 11.5 defeat in Rome in 2023, the Americans are determined to reclaim the coveted trophy on home soil. The trend is in their favor, as the host team has won the last five Ryder Cups. The U.S. roster is packed with talent, featuring superstars like world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, Bryson DeChambeau, and Xander Schauffele.

Across the pond, Captain Luke Donald returns to lead a formidable European squad. Coming off a dominant performance in Italy, Team Europe aims to do what no visiting team has done since 2012: win on foreign soil. They will rely on a core of seasoned veterans and dynamic talents, including Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm, and Viktor Hovland. To retain the cup, Europe needs 14 points, while the U.S. must secure 14.5 to win it outright.

The action begins immediately on Friday morning with the foursomes (alternate shot) format, and the initial pairings promise intense competition.
