The Ryder Cup 2025 begins on Friday with Europe taking on a formidable Team USA at Bethpage Black in New York.

Europe have brought back 11 of the 12 heroes from Marco Simone in a bid to repeat their success and secure a first away win in the cup since 2012.

Luke Donald can call on a number of superstars in a boost to Europe’s chances, as Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm and Tommy Fleetwood, among others, lead the away team.

But Scottie Scheffler, the world No 1, presents a tough challenge after a historic year that included two major victories, including a dominant win at Royal Portrush to capture The Open.

Here’s the full schedule, tee times, pairings and results from the Ryder Cup 2025:
