Ryder Cup 2025 Brings Golf and Star Power to Bethpage Black
The spotlight in golf this week is firmly on Bethpage Black in New York, as the 2025 Ryder Cup is about to unfold. Excitement has been building for months, and now the energy is spilling over with not just the main event, but also the fun and fan-favorite All-Star celebrity match. Both Team USA and Team Europe are ready to fight for glory, while the crowds are expected to create one of the most electric atmospheres we’ve ever seen at a Ryder Cup.
The celebrity All-Star match served as a lively curtain-raiser. Fans were treated to a 10-hole competition featuring some unexpected names holding golf clubs instead of the tools of their usual trades. Representing Europe were familiar faces such as Brooklyn Beckham, actress Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Harry Potter stars Tom Felton and Oliver Phelps. They were joined by athletes-turned-golfers like Pau Gasol, Toni Kukoc, and Teemu Selanne. Team USA wasn’t short on star power either, with tennis legend John McEnroe, musician Noah Kahan, chef Bobby Flay, country star Miranda Lambert, and two-time Super Bowl champion Eli Manning all stepping into the spotlight. The mix of entertainers, athletes, and personalities brought a lighter, playful touch to the competitive week.

But make no mistake, once Friday arrives, the tone will shift dramatically. The official Ryder Cup begins September 26 and runs through September 28, with 28 points up for grabs across three days of foursomes, fourballs, and singles matches. The home side, led by captain Keegan Bradley, is stacked with talent—seven of the top 10 players in the world, including World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, will tee it up for Team USA. Their mission is straightforward: reach 14.5 points to wrestle back the Ryder Cup.
Europe, captained again by Luke Donald, knows the challenge all too well. His squad, featuring stars like Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm, and Tommy Fleetwood, only needs 14 points to retain the Cup after their 2023 victory. The task is daunting, though, with the event being played on U.S. soil in front of what’s expected to be massive, loud, and passionate American crowds. History shows how difficult it is to win away—no European team has done it since the “Miracle at Medinah” back in 2012.
Coverage will be everywhere. NBC, USA, Peacock, and RyderCup.com will provide wall-to-wall broadcasting, from opening ceremonies to featured matches, ensuring fans don’t miss a swing. For golf lovers, this week offers a little bit of everything: celebrity flair, historic rivalries, and the intensity of one of sport’s greatest team competitions, all set on the demanding stage of Bethpage Black.
The stage has been set. The stars—both professional and celebrity—have walked onto the fairways. Now it’s up to Team USA and Team Europe to write the next chapter of Ryder Cup history.
