In 2017, the PGA of America announced the Lake Course at Olympic would host the 2028 PGA Championship and the 2033 Ryder Cup. The last time a West Coast venue hosted the Ryder Cup was in 1959 at Eldorado Country Club in Indian Wells, California.

Event: 45th Ryder Cup matches. Dates: Sept. 26-28. Course: Bethpage State Park (Black Course). Yardage: 7,352. Par: 70. Format: Four matches of foursomes (alternate shot) and fourballs (better ball) on Friday and Saturday, 12 singles matches on Sunday.

European Ryder Cup Captain Luke Donald already is a hero for leading Team Europe to a resounding victory in Rome in 2023.

The European team that will compete in the Ryder Cup from the 26th to the 28th of this month against the United States is in New York for two days of training at the Bethpage Black course, where the biennial competition will be held.

Even if more continental Europeans fill the pipeline, they won't stay amateurs for long. Perhaps that's one reason the two amateur versions of the trans-Atlantic cups — the Walker Cup and Curtis Cup — are between America and the British Isles, as it always has been.

Not all high finishes are created equal, so let's take a deeper dive into recent performances of the 2025 Ryder Cup participants

Meet the European vice captains assisting Luke Donald in the 2025 Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black. The 2025 Ryder Cup will mark Bjorn's sixth time as a vice captain in the biennial contest and 10th time overall he has been a part of Team Europe, including in 2018 when he was the captain for the European victory in Paris.

The celebrity matches will begin at 7:45 a.m. Sept. 24 on Hole No. at Bethpage Black during a 10-hole scramble format including holes 15, 16, 17, and 18. The final hole will be played twice, followed by a trophy for the winning team on the 18th green.
