Comp Results: 3/7/16/20/37/45/MC/MC
Insights: Scottie’s been the standout all year, only problem: one player can’t carry a team of 12. His 16-5-4 career singles record shows how dominant he is one-on-one, yet 4-5-3 career team record highlights the challenges of team play. Expect him to be the U.S. workhorse across all three days and most likely paired with Henley. Enjoy walking Scottie this week because we won’t see him again until December.

Insights: Rory is the captain and heartbeat of Team Europe, and he’ll be a force against both the Americans and the crowds all three days. A Ryder Cup win on foreign soil would rank as high or even more as that green jacket on his shoulders. With two September starts, including a win at the Irish Open, his form and focus has the clubhouse fully invested in him this week.

FORM: 20/21/7/9
Ryder Cup Results: 2-2
Comp Results: 1/2/9/42
Insights: Even without past experience at Bethpage, Sweed’s game profiles as a strong fit, with his early-2025 performance at Torrey serving as a benchmark. His 0-1 singles record is worth monitoring, as is some recent rust with the irons, but a likely pairing with Hovland should maximize his elite off-the-tee and approach play. Around-the-green concerns remain, yet the clubhouse expects plenty of scoring opportunities.

Comp Results: 1/3/18/24/29/30/40/43/45/49/MC/MC/MC/MC
Insights: All year, Sam has been riding a hot putter—ranked first on tour—which should translate well in team formats with the right partner. He likely won’t be paired with Scottie this week, so point expectations should be tempered. Still, he’s a strong bet for Sunday, where he holds a 7-1-2 career record.
Patrick Cantlay
Team: USA

FORM: 30/2/30/9
Ryder Cup Results: 5-2-1
Comp Results: 3/5/15/51/56/MC/MC
Insights: Cantlay brings a strong Ryder Cup resume—5-2-1 overall, 10-6-1 in overall team formats, 13-6-2 in career singles—and a 3rd-place finish at Bethpage in 2019. While his 2025 season shows high rankings, he’s managed only four top-5s in 25 starts and his last win was 2022. The clubhouse expects a Southern California pairing with Morikawa or Xander, and could signal how the overall result might tilt.

Insights: Per usual, there’s plenty of buzz around Bryson. His distance suits Bethpage, but he missed the cut at the 2019 PGA Championship and hasn’t played a competitive round in over a month. The clubhouse is curious to see how much he plays, how he performs, and whether he can step up (3-7-2 career singles record) in a Sunday singles matchup with Rory—something he struggled to do consistently in 2025.

Comp Results: 1/2/3/6/8/14/24/24/31/39/43/60/64/71/73/MC/MC/MC/MC/MC/MC
Insights: Harris has a profile similar to that of Justin Rose on the Europe side—for showing up in big moments this year (Farmers win, PGA runner-up, Open runner-up, Masters 12th). He thrives in high-pressure situations, though the clubhouse is cautious about his ability to make enough birdies over minimizing big numbers. Clubhouse not expecting to see much of him this week due to a 1-1 team record and will be a coin flip on Sunday with a 6-7 overall singles record.
Matt Fitzpatrick

FORM: 5/5/6/17

Comp Results: 41/49/55
Insights: Fitzpatrick’s Ryder Cup singles record (9-15-1) raises questions, but his recent form demands respect. Over his last 10 events, he has 9 Top 20s, 7 Top 10s, and 4 Top 5s, ranking among the most consistent players in the competition. The clubhouse expects Captain Donald to pair him with an European elite and playing a pivotal role in the final outcome.

Comp Results: 5/5/29/48/50
Insights: Fairway Jesus may not get a hero’s welcome from the New York crowd despite his FedEx Cup win, but fans should be ready for a player in excellent form with a strong Ryder Cup record. His 12-12-4 singles mark won’t intimidate Team USA on Sunday, yet it gives him another opportunity to prove he’s added that missing piece to his game this year so don’t be quick to bet against the PGA Tour Winner this go around.

Ryder Cup Results: DEBUT
Comp Results: 2/4/24/31/37/44/MC/MC/MC
Insights: Griffin has rebounded with five straight Top-12 finishes since his missed cuts at The Deere and The Open, highlighted by going toe-to-toe with Scottie at the Procore. His strong approach and putting play, along with added length off the tee, should serve him well at Bethpage. While this marks his Ryder Cup debut, his win at the Zurich Classic shows he can thrive in team formats, making this a valuable test of whether he’s ready to take the next step toward the game’s elite. Clubhouse believes a Bryson pairing is in the mix but don’t be surprised to see multiple partners for the UNC alum this week.

Comp Results: 48/MC
Insights: The Mad Hattor has put together a strong season with highlights like a T4 at the U.S. Open, T14 at Augusta, T16 at The Open, and a Team Title with Jon Rahm in the LIV Golf League. Recently, however, his off-the-tee play has slipped and his putter has been inconsistent. With Bethpage not the best fit for his game, the clubhouse expects results more in line with his career singles record of 10-12-2, and it will be interesting to see how often Captain Luke decides to use him this week.
Russell Henley

Ryder Cup Results: DEBUT
Comp Results: 13/14/39/48/54/MC/MC
Insights: With just one win this year—a miraculous chip on the 70th hole at Bay Hill—his season has still been remarkably consistent, earning weekly consideration from the patrons. He enters Bethpage on an eight-event streak of Top 20s that includes five Top 10s, three Top 5s, and two runner-ups, making him one of Team USA’s hottest players behind only Scottie. Still, the clubhouse is tempering expectations given his Ryder Cup debut and an under-.500 career singles record (7-10-1), even if pairing with Scottie on Friday and Saturday should boost his impact.
Rasmus Hojgaard

Insights: Rasmus earned his spot on the team with two runner-up finishes late in the season and has long been admired by the Clubhouse alongside his brother Nicolai. With no singles or team records, he enters as a true debutant wildcard. Given Europe’s depth, the clubhouse expects limited playing time and sees him as a likely fade on Sunday.
Viktor Hovland

Insights: After early struggles due to a neck injury, Viktor has regained form and is playing some of his most consistent golf of the season (7 Top 20s in last 13 starts including Valspar Win, 3rd at US Open and 5th at BMW PGA Championship). The clubhouse is watching how his pairing with Ludvig will perform, along with his off-the-tee game, which has not been as strong as 2024.
Shane Lowry

Insights: Suga Shane was a consistent presence on leaderboards early in the season, but recent struggles with off-the-tee play, around-the-green shots, and putting have slowed him down. Bethpage may challenge him further, and his 8-18-4 singles record will be targeted by the clubhouse with a favorable Sunday matchup. Whether he pairs with Rory this week remains uncertain, unlike earlier in the season when it was more of a formality.

Insights: Bobby Mac comes into the 2025 Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black with solid form and plenty o’ experience under pressure. While he’s yet tae notch a win this season, his six top-10s and composure in big moments make him a key asset for Team Europe. If paired wisely, expect him tae chip in points and hold his own against the toughest opponents.
Collin Morikawa

Ryder Cup Results: 4-3-1
Comp Results: 1/3/4/17/21/MC
Insights: Collin’s recent finishes don’t breed much confidence from the clubhouse this week especially with the continued flat stick issues (1 Top 10 in last 15 starts, doesn’t help either). Career 8-4 team record shows his pairing with either Cantlay or Schauffele will be a tough out, but not a guarentee given the current form. Clubhouse will look to target Collin even with the comp course major title at TPC Harding Park back in 2020.

Insights: The clubhouse views this Ryder Cup as a purposeful trip for Rahmbo. Despite underwhelming wins in LIV Golf and falling short in key 2025 moments, he remains Top 5 in the Data Golf Rankings. This week offers a chance for him to prove to clubhouse patrons that bigger performances are on the horizon in 2026.

Insights: Mastercard holder Rosie may be 45, but he’s far from done. With six Ryder Cups under his belt and a knack for steady, strategic play, he brings leadership and calm to Team Europe. True boom or bust 2025 season, don’t let the stats fool you, his experience, mentorship, and course savvy make him a key contributor and someone who can still deliver when it matters most and the clubhouse is buying with the World Elite tier this week.

Insights: Xander has only 15 starts in 2025 and ZERO Top 5 finishes. After a standout 2024, his stats are adequate but not exceptional, and the clubhouse expects some rust at Bethpage, making him a wait-and-see player despite his strong 13-5-4 career singles record. Wide range of outcomes for X and his playing partners this week. Caution ahead!

Insights: J.J. Spaun enters the 2025 Ryder Cup as a promising newcomer, highlighted by his U.S. Open win and strong early-season finishes. While his recent form has been a bit inconsistent and he lacks Ryder Cup experience, his ball-striking and clutch putting make him a potential asset for Team USA. Fun side plot of a Sunday revenge match vs Rory for the Cup?

Insights: The clubhouse views Sepp as a true wildcard with a wide range of outcomes. Yes, one of the best statistical profiles; however, he hasn’t played since the Tour Championship and took a leave of absence for unknown personal matters. If Wagon can regain his earlier-season form and adapt to the challenges of Bethpage Black, he could prove to be a valuable asset for Team Europe but Clubhouse leans to Donald keeping him more on the bench over the first tee box.

Insights: For JT to be a pivotal member to Team USA he will need ot be better in Approach and on the greens from what he has shown in recent weeks. The 14-4-4 team format record is impressive and gaudy but does not reflect the current state of JT’s game. A pairing with Bryson would be fun and breathe Red-White-Blue but clubhouse doesn’t see that leading to fairways and birdies.

Insights: CY arrives at Bethpage Black with hometown pride fueling him. The New York native knows this course like few others, having set the course record there in 2017, and his late-season surge—including a Wyndham win and top-10s at the U.S. Open and Canadian Open—makes him a high-upside pick. While Ryder Cup experience is limited, expect Young to channel the home crowd and his local knowledge into a standout performance for Team USA. Clubhouse recommends Keegan lean into Cam this week, but unsure if that will be the case.
