Watching Ryder Cup 2025: Details on Streaming, Dates, Teams, and All You Need to Know Regarding the Golf Tournament
The highly anticipated Ryder Cup 2025 is set to take place at Bethpage Black in Farmingdale, New York, from Friday, September 26, to Sunday, September 28. This prestigious team golf competition, originally created in 1927, will see Team Europe aiming to continue their dominance in the tournament.
Europe has been the dominant force in the Ryder Cup for the last 25 years, winning seven of the 11 Ryder Cups that have taken place in the 21st century. This year, Luke Donald, who is the captain for Team Europe, will be leading the charge, marking his first time as captain for back-to-back Ryder Cups.
In the United States, NBC is the broadcast home for the Ryder Cup. To watch the tournament live, tune in to NBC for all live broadcasts throughout the event. For those who prefer streaming, NBC's streaming service, Peacock, will provide a live stream of NBC’s coverage, allowing viewers to watch the Ryder Cup online with a Peacock subscription. The NBC Sports app and NBCSports.com often simulcast the Golf Channel’s coverage as well, offering an additional streaming option.
For viewers outside their usual service area or abroad, a VPN service like NordVPN can be used to access US-based streaming.
The Ryder Cup consists of three days of competition, with four-ball, foursomes, and singles matches taking place on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, respectively. In four-ball and foursomes matches, the lowest score of each team on a hole counts as the team's official score. In singles matches, the player with the lowest score on a hole wins that hole. If a hole is halved, no points are awarded in any match type.
As of August 6, Scottie Scheffler leads Team USA in points standings, followed by Xander Schauffele, JJ Spaun, Russell Henley, Bryson DeChambeau, Harris English, and Justin Thomas. On the other hand, Rory McIlroy leads Team Europe in points standings, followed by Robert MacIntyre, Tommy Fleetwood, Tyrrell Hatton, Shane Lowry, Sepp Straka, and Rasmus Højgaard.
Team USA hopes to extend their streak of victories on home soil to three in the Ryder Cup 2025. However, to do so, they must earn at least 14 1⁄2 points from all matches. As the defending champion, Team Europe can retain the cup if they earn at least 14 1⁄2 points or if the event ends in a 14-14 tie.
For those in the UK, Sky Sports will exclusively cover the Ryder Cup. Bethpage Black has previously hosted two US Opens and a PGA Championship, adding to the prestige of this year's event. The Ryder Cup website provides full standings for both teams throughout the tournament.
