The Ryder Cup 2025 delivered an electrifying showdown at the iconic Bethpage Black course in New York, where Europe battled fiercely to defend their crown against a resurgent US team. After dominating the opening two days with an unprecedented 11½ to 4½ lead, Europe seemed poised for a straightforward win. But the Americans weren’t ready to concede, igniting a final-day rally that had fans on the edge of their seats.

Team Europe’s captain Luke Donald cemented his legacy by leading the visitors to their first away victory since 2012—a gutsy 15-13 triumph that came despite the US clawing back five wins and a tie in the gripping Sunday singles. Englishman Tyrrell Hatton’s clutch play sealed the match point, a fitting close to a tournament filled with drama, tension, and moments of sheer brilliance.

While Europe carried a historic lead, the last day was a rollercoaster of emotions. The US pushed for the biggest final-day comeback in Ryder Cup history, threatening to overturn the odds. But steady nerves, key matches won by Europe’s Ludvig Åberg and Matt Fitzpatrick, and a thrilling last-hole birdie by Shane Lowry ensured the trophy stayed in European hands. The final strokes carried weight beyond points—a celebration of resilience and sportsmanship.
