Ryder Cup 2025: What You Need to Know

If you love golf, the Ryder Cup is the biggest event of the year and 2025 promises a fresh twist. Europe and the USA will meet again, this time on European soil, and the excitement is already building. Below you’ll find the essential details – when it happens, where it’s held, how to snag tickets, and the best ways to watch the action live.

When and Where Is It Happening?

The 2025 edition is set for September 27‑29 at the Marco Simone Golf & Country Club just outside Rome, Italy. The course, redesigned by Robert Trent Jones II, offers dramatic elevation changes and a classic links feel that will test every skill set.

Europe will enjoy a home‑field advantage, but the USA team will travel with confidence after a strong showing in the 2023 event. Expect a packed schedule of four‑ball, foursomes and singles matches, each worth a point toward the final score.

How to Follow the Action Live

First, think about tickets. Early‑bird sales usually open six months before the tournament, and the best seats sell out fast. Sign up for the official Ryder Cup newsletter or follow the tournament’s social channels for release dates. If you can’t get a seat on the course, no worries – the event will be broadcast worldwide.

In the UK and Ireland, the BBC and Sky Sports share coverage. In the US, NBC and Golf Channel will stream the matches live. For fans outside those markets, the PGA Tour Live app and the official Ryder Cup website often provide streaming options, sometimes with a small fee.

Don’t forget the social side. Twitter hashtags like #RyderCup2025 and the event’s Instagram stories give you real‑time highlights, player interviews, and behind‑the‑scenes shots. If you love stats, the Golf Channel’s live leaderboard updates let you track each match’s progress down to the last putt.

Finally, a quick tip for the die‑hard fans: a reliable VPN can unlock region‑locked streams if you’re traveling. Just pick a server in a country where the broadcast is free, and you’ll be set for every round.

Whether you’re watching from a stadium seat or your living room couch, the 2025 Ryder Cup promises drama, rivalry, and some unforgettable golf moments. Keep an eye on the schedule, grab your tickets early, and enjoy the showdown between Europe’s finesse and America’s power play.

Padraig Harrington says Europe have a real shot at breaking the away-win drought at Bethpage Black, even if the U.S. edge the odds at home. He points to Luke Donald’s settled, in-form squad—11 of the 12 who won in Rome—while warning the hostile New York crowd and course setup will be a major hurdle. He’d make Europe favorites on neutral ground and expects a tight contest.
