Overall, the USA leads Europe 27-14 in the all-time Ryder Cup series dating back to 1927.
The Americans won the most recent Ryder Cup in 2021 by a score of 19-9 as Steve Stricker’s Team USA defeated Padraig Harrington’s Team Europe at Whistling Straits. This was a historic blowout as the Americans tied the largest Ryder Cup margin of victory since 1975.
While the Americans are looking to retain the Ryder Cup, history says that won’t be easy. The Europeans have won six consecutive home Ryder Cups dating back to 1993, including most recently at Le Golf National in 2018 when they defeated the Americans 17.5-10.5.
If the two teams were to tie at 14 points each, then the United States of America would retain the Ryder Cup.
The Ryder Cup opening ceremony and pairings announcement will take place on Thursday, Sept. 28, on Golf Channel at 10 a.m. ET.
On Friday and Saturday, the Europeans and Americans will compete in two different sessions each day, with four two-man matches per session – meaning four golfers for each team will sit per session.
Friday and Saturday morning will feature foursomes (also known as alternate shot) as the first session, starting at 1:30 a.m. ET each day.
Friday and Saturday afternoon will feature four-ball (also known as best ball) sessions starting at approximately 6:30 a.m. ET.
After a total of 16 points are awarded over the first two days, the Ryder Cup concludes on Sunday when all 12 players on each team will compete in singles matches for the final 12 points.

Course Preview
Marco Simone Golf and Country Club is a 7,181-yard par-71 in Rome. Jim Fazio originally designed the course, but Tom Fazio II and the European Golf Design completed a redesign from 2018-2021 in preparation for the Ryder Cup.
The course features four par-3s, 11 par-4s and three par-5s. Three of the par-4s are drivable, and all three par-5s are under 600 yards, so there will be plenty of exciting risk-reward opportunities tailored for match play.
