2021 Ryder Cup – Competition Format
The Ryder Cup sees Team USA going head-to-head with Team Europe over three days of action-packed golf.
Each team has 12 players taking part in a match play tournament for a total of 28 matches, each played over 18 holes.
On Friday and Saturday, there are four four-ball matches (between two teams of two golfers scoring individually) and four foursomes (between two teams of two golfers taking alternate shots).
Sunday brings 12 singles matches where players from both teams compete against each other.
The winner or winners of each match earn a point for their team with half a point awarded for any tie.
To win the Ryder Cup outright, a team must collect 14½ of the 28 points available – in the case of a 14-14 draw, the winning team of the previous Ryder Cup retain the trophy.
