American players are reportedly set to be paid at the Ryder Cup for the first time in the event’s 97-year history. For almost a century, the biennial tournament has prided itself on passion

Tiger Woods previously claimed that he felt players should be paid to represent the United States at the Ryder Cup, and now the PGA of America have finally made a change

Three-time European Tour winner and Ryder Cup player gives his verdict on Tiger Woods and the state of the modern game.

The PGA of America is mulling a decision to pay members of the U.S. Ryder Cup team when the biennial competition is next played from Sept. 26-28, 2025 at Bethpage Black in Farmingdale, New York, per the Telegraph.

A long-rumored change seems to be finally happening. As Golfweek reported last month, players on the United States Ryder Cup team are set to be paid for next year's biennial bash at Bethpage Black in New York.

Talks of Americans getting paid for the Ryder Cup have been brewing for decades. In 1999 at Brookline, Massachusetts (one of the most famous Ryder Cup weekends in the event’s history), golfers including Tiger Woods voiced their opinions on players not being paid despite the event raking in several million dollars.

Rory McIlroy says he “would pay to appear in the Ryder Cup” in response to news that the US team is set to receive almost £4 million collectively for next year’s match in New York.
