When is the Ryder Cup 2025? Start time, schedule, New York weather forecast, venue, format, odds

Europe are the reigning champions having won the trophy in Rome two years ago, and need 14 points to retain the title, with the hosts needing 14.5 points won to regain the trophy.

It will be a star-studded field in New York, with the likes of Rory McIlroy, Tommy Fleetwood, and Justin Rose representing the Europeans, and Scottie Scheffler, Xander Schauffele, and Bryson DeChambeau in the American team.

Keegan Bradley leads the US, becoming the youngest Ryder Cup captain since Arnold Palmer in 1963. Luke Donald captains Europe again after leading their 2023 triumph.

He is the first European to retain his captaincy since Bernard Gallacher back in 1993.

The action gets underway on Friday, September 26, and runs until Sunday, September 28.

Bethpage State Park plays host, with the Long Island course having hosted the PGA Championship in 2019.

It was selected as the host club for the Ryder Cup 12 years ago.

It is the second time that New York will host the event, with the most recent coming at the Oak Hill Country Club in 1995. Europe won 14.5 to 13.5 then and will be hoping for a similar result this time around.

TV channel: All the action will be broadcast across Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Golf. Live coverage begins at 9am BST on Saturday morning, with a 2pm start on Sunday ahead of the singles matches.

Live stream: Sky Sports subscribers can stream the action via the SkyGo app.

There will be two four-match sessions of foursomes and two four-match sessions of fourball, before all 12 players are involved on Sunday for the singles.

Keegan Bradley, as the home captain, decides which format kicks the action off.

The focus will then shift to the fourball matches, where players hit their own ball and the lowest score for each team on each hole is used.
