2025年ライダーカップのトップ24選手：シェフラー、マキロイ、ホイゴーなど | ESPN
The 2025 RDER Cup is set to be one of the most anticipated events in golf history with the US and Europe locked in a battle for the coveted trophy. After a long- aaited buildup, the 45th RDER Cup is finally here. Set to take place at Beth Page Black State Park in New York. This year’s event promises to be a highstakes showdown as the US team faces the challenge of defending their home advantage against Europe’s formidable squad. The US has dominated the Rder Cup in recent years, claiming victory in each of the last five editions. Europe, however, has not been idle, winning eight out of the past 11 events, including a stunning 16 1/2 to 11 1/2 triumph at Marco Simone in 2023. The last time a visiting team captured the trophy was Europe’s memorable 14 12 to 13 1/2 victory at Madina Country Club in 2012. A reminder of the intense competition that defines this prestigious tournament. This year’s roster is particularly intriguing. The US team features seven of the top 10 golfers in the official World Golf Ranking, led by world number one Scotty Sheffller, who aims to redeem himself after a disappointing showing in Rome two years ago. Meanwhile, Rory Mroy, the emotional leader of Europe, is determined to prove that the home team isn’t the only force to contend with. History would tell you it’s very difficult, Mroy said. But we have a massive opportunity to do something that not a lot of RDER Cup teams say they have done. The format includes four Forsomes matches, four four ball matches, and 12 singles matches with Europe needing 14 points to retain the trophy and the US requiring 14 1/2 points to take it back. Here’s closer look at the key players who will shape the outcome. Scotty Sheffller, USA. The world’s best golfer is under pressure to deliver after a shaky performance in Rome. But Sheffller is currently in peak form, having won six times this season, including a thrilling victory at the Procore Championship. His ability to dominate from the tea could be the difference in this high stakes matchup. Rory Mroy at Europe. At 36, Mroy remains a powerhouse with 16134 in his RDER Cup career. His leadership on the course and in the locker room is critical for Europe, especially as they face a rowdy crowd on Long Island. His recent win at the Irish Open shows he’s still capable of rising to the occasion. Tommy Fleetwood, Europe. The English star has made a name for himself with his consistency and charisma. His first victory on American soil at the Tour Championship highlights his growing reputation, but he’ll need to perform at his best to help Europe secure a win. John Rom Europe, despite a dip in his world ranking, Rahm remains one of the games elite. His success in the Liv golf league and major championships makes him a key player for Europe, even if he’s not traditionally seen as a Rder Cup contender. Bryson Dashambo, USA. The two-time US Open champion brings a unique style to the team, relying on his incredible length off the tea. His absence from the 2023 team and a rocky start in Paris may raise questions about his readiness for this pivotal event. Patrick Kentley, USA. The Hackgate controversy from two years ago is a flash point, but Kentley’s recent clutch performance, including a dramatic birdie putt to silence critics, shows he’s still a reliable performer. Russell Henley, USA. A rookie with a proven track record. Henley’s combination of power and precision makes him a valuable asset. His performance in the 2024 President’s Cup demonstrated his ability to step up when it matters most. Justin Thomas, USA, known for his dedication to the Rder Cup. Thomas has been a consistent performer in match play. His 300 record in singles matches is a testament to his reliability and he’s already called this week’s event the biggest golf event ever. Tier Hatton, Europe. A standout in Rome. Hatton’s partnership with Rahm helped Europe secure crucial points. His form on the DP World Tour suggests he’s ready to contribute again. Cameron Young, USA, the youngest player on the team. Young’s breakthrough win at the Windom Championship signals a promising future. His ability to hit the ball far and stay calm under pressure could make him a surprise factor. Xander Shaley, USA. A former US Open champion, Shaley’s recent injury setback raises concerns about his readiness. If he can recover his form, he could be a gamecher for the Americans. Victor Havland, Europe. Havlin’s inconsistent performance has been a hurdle, but his recent results at the Tour Championship and BMW PGA Championship suggest he’s on the right track. His experience in the RDER Cup will be key. Robert McIntyre. The Scottish star has risen to the top of the world rankings, winning twice on the PGA Tour and finishing in the top 10 in three of the past seven majors. His partnership with Justin Rose in Rome was a major asset. Colin Morawa, USA. A two-time major champion, Morawa’s form has been off lately. However, his exceptional ball striking skills and potential to pair well with a strong putter could help him turn things around. Harris English, USA, returning from a long hiatus. English’s recent performances at the Farmers Insurance Open and PGA Championship show he’s ready to make an impact. If his putter is hot, he could be a surprise for the US. JJ Spawn, USA. The 35-year-old rookiey’s dramatic win at the US Open and his ability to hit the ball far make him a threat in this tournament. His experience in the RDER Cup will be crucial. Matt Fitzpatrick, Europe. The 2022 US Open champion has struggled in previous Rder Cups, but his recent form after hiring a new swing coach suggests he’s on the right path. His performance in the FedEx Cup playoffs is a positive sign. Ben Griffin, USA, a surprising addition to the US team. Griffin’s return to golf after working as a mortgage loan officer has been nothing short of impressive. His recent wins and strong performances in major tournaments make him a key player. Sam Burns, USA late season surge in the FedEx Cup playoffs secured his spot on the team. His leadership on the course and ability to perform under pressure could be a valuable asset for the US. Shane Lowry, Europe, the emotional leader of the European team. Lowry’s recent confrontation with Joe Lava in Rome highlights his fiery personality. His ability to step up in critical moments is a key factor for Europe. Seb Straka, Europe, born in Austria but raised in Georgia, Straa has shown consistency on tour, winning twice this season. While he doesn’t hit it far, his accuracy and composure make him a reliable performer. Justin Rose, Europe. At 45, Rose remains a powerhouse, having won the first leg of the FedEx Cup playoffs and contributed to four winning RDER Cup teams, including the miracle at Madina in 2012. Rasmus Hoggard, Europe. The 24year-old Danish rookie is the only new face on the European team. His twin brother, Nikolai, played in Rome, and Raasmus’ familiarity with the team could give him an edge in this high pressure environment. But here’s where it gets controversial. Will the US team’s deep talent and home advantage be enough to overcome Europe’s experience and momentum? And this is the part most people miss.
