One of the teams has to break the monotony at some point and win a Ryder Cup on the other team’s home turf. The Americans haven’t won in Europe since 1993. Their European counterparts have pulled off the feat a few times since then: In 1995, 2004 and 2012. It’s an impressive accomplishment to win on the opposite side of the pond, with the fans in your face, the pressure, the noise and the home course (dis)advantage.
The US team isn’t making it easy on themselves in 2025 either. The ticket prices in 2025 are going to keep a lot of diehard golf fans away, while corporate executives timidly cheer on their favorite millionaire golfers. And, speaking of money, the US players finally got what they’ve always wanted: MONEY. The US players will get $400,000 for representing their country in 2025. Sure, everyone makes money off of the Ryder Cup, except for the players, but seriously? Do these millionaires need more money to try and stick it to their European counterparts?
Well those are two reasons why the US won’t win at Bethpage Black: they’re getting paid and the fans need to take out a loan just to see one day of golf in New York. Which brings us to the key question: why will the Europeans win in 2025?
This is the reason why the US will lose the next Ryder Cup
His name is Donald, Luke Donald. Cool Hand Luke? Sure, why not? The English golfer lead his team to victory in Rome in 2023 and he got picked again to manage the European team in New York. Watch the European Ryder Cup team documentary ‘Una Famiglia’ and you’ll understand why the US doesn’t have a chance in 2025.
Of course it’s not only Luke Donald that makes a difference. It’s the 12 players who want to destroy the Americans. They want it more. They want it bad. It’s been like that ever since a young Spaniard showed up and taught the Europeans how to beat the Americans. It seems almost unfair for the Americans that the Europeans can invoke the “Spirit of Seve,” but they can and they do.
Watching the European team visiting the Marco Simone Golf Club for the first time and seeing the huge banner of Seve unfold as they listen to an Opera singer gives you chills in the documentary. It gives you goosebumps listening to Jon Rahm talk about how Seve was such an inspiration for him and two generations of European golfers. Listening to Chema Olazabal talk about Seve and their love of the Ryder Cup brings tears to your eyes.
Just listen to Shane Lowry talk about his love of the Ryder Cup:Related stories
I can’t imagine any American player showing that emotion in front of the camera or on the course. How do you compete against that?
