2027 Ryder Cup Schedule

The 2027 Ryder Cup kicks off on Monday with player arrivals, unofficial practice, and media sessions with the pros. The course is generally closed to the public this day.

The two teams will participate in practice rounds, where they’ll have the opportunity to scout out the course, work on their game, and test out their equipment.

Practice continues on Wednesday, which will also feature the Ryder Cup All-Star Match. This fun event pits 8 European celebrity all-stars against 8 American celebrity all-stars for 10 holes of 2-Man Scramble. Celebrity all-stars at the 2025 Ryder Cup included John McEnroe, Noah Kahan, Teemu Selanne, and Catherine Zeta-Jones.

Thursday brings the final practice day of the 2027 Ryder Cup. Following the practice is the Opening Ceremony, where the full 12-man rosters will be introduced for both Team Europe and Team USA. Typically the Opening Ceremony will also feature national anthems and speeches, as well as traditional music, dancers, and entertainers.

Friday and Saturday are the first two days of competition at the 2027 Ryder Cup. The days start out with a four-match session of foursomes, where each two-man team plays one ball per hole (taking turns). On each hole, the team with the lowest score wins the hole. In the event of a tie, the hole is halved.

In the afternoons, the competition turns to four-ball. Again, there are two-man teams, though this time they each play their own ball. The lowest score on each team is counted, and the team with the lowest score wins the hole. Just like in foursomes, if there is a tie, the hole is halved.

The tournament wraps up with singles matches, which feature all 24 players competing in 12 consecutive head-to-head matches. One player from each team competes in each match with the lowest score winning the hole. The pressure and excitement on the final day is high, as the scoreboard can shift dramatically. The tournament concludes with the Closing Ceremony, where the winning team is presented with the trophy.
