Ryder Cup Prep Tightens: U.S. Camps in Napa, Europe Keeps Core, Trump Set for Opening Day

Team USA treats the Procore Championship as a live rehearsal to avoid the rust that hurt in 2023.

Overview

  • U.S. captain Keegan Bradley says his Ryder Cup pairings are about 90% set as he observes players and tests combinations in Napa.
  • Ten of the 12 Americans are competing at the Procore Championship, with tee groups arranged to pair teammates; Xander Schauffele is out for family reasons and Bryson DeChambeau is ineligible.
  • World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler emphasized staying competition‑sharp after going winless in 2023, calling tournament reps better preparation than practice alone.
  • Luke Donald returns as Europe’s captain with 11 of the 12 players from the 2023 win, plans a Bethpage scouting trip, and has most of his team competing at Wentworth.
  • President Trump is scheduled to attend opening day at Bethpage Black, and Donald says the PGA of America has assured organizers’ security protocols will keep operations running smoothly.
