Where the 2025 Ryder Cup Will Be Played
The site of the 2025 Ryder Cup is Bethpage Black in Farmingdale, New York, on Long Island. The Black Course at Bethpage State Park has not previously hosted a Ryder Cup. It has, though, been the site of major championships.The 2002 U.S. Open was played at Bethpage Black, and won by Tiger Woods. The 2009 U.S. Open also took place there, that one won by Lucas Glover. And Brooks Koepka won the 2019 PGA Championship there. The PGA Tour has also played FedEx Cup playoff tournaments at Bethpage Black.
Captains and Team Selection
The 2025 captain for Team Europe is Luke Donald, who returns to the role after guiding his side to victory in the 2023 Ryder Cup. Donald is the first repeat captain for Europe since Bernard Gallacher served three consecutive terms in the 1990s. He also has the chance, should Europe win again in 2025, to join Tony Jacklin as the only European captains to guide their squads to both home and away victories.The Team USA captain for 2025 has not yet been announced.
Recent Ryder Cups have seen changes almost with each competition to the way each side selects its 12 golfers. So the exact method of choosing the Team USA and Team Europe team rosters may change again. But in 2023, the selection methods were these:
- Team USA was comprised of the top six players in the point rankings plus six captain's picks.
- Team Europe was comprised of the first three players from the European Points List, the top three eligible golfers from the world points lists, plus six captain's picks.
