Europe hit back

The opening foursome ties the second hole after Justin Thomas narrowly misses a short-range putt.

Meanwhile, over at the first, a sublime approach from Matt Fitzpatrick sets up a tap-in for Ludvig Åberg, giving Europe the early lead in that pairing as Team USA fails to convert.

Make sure you're tuning into the action and using NordVPN if you're outside your usual country.

Next to the 1st tee: Scottie Scheffler / Russell Henley vs Ludvig Åberg / Matt Fitzpatrick

The next set of pairs tee off and it is a lovely drive from Ludvig Åberg just short of the green.

Russell Henley decides to lay up and despite being in the rough it looks a good enough lie for world number 1, Scottie Scheffler to get to the green.

Team USA take the first hole

Rahm leaves his putt just short, but Bryson makes no mistake as he sinks it to put USA 1 up.

The American fans erupt — just the start they would have dreamed of this morning.

Both Europe and USA putting for birdie

On second look, Rahm's tee shot really wasn't bad. And Tyrell Hatton makes the most of a nice lie as he chips it onto the green despite a slight chunk.

Justin Thomas goes one better and gets it just inside Hatton's shot.

And we're off... DeChambeau just short of the green!

A bad start for Jon Rahm as he drifts off to the right and into the rough, DeChambeau is just short of the green — an incredible shot!

The Iconic Bethpage Black

Bethpage Black, New York, is one of the most legendary courses in America and is the ideal venue for the 2025 Ryder Cup.

If the warning sign isn’t enough to scare you, then the long rough, narrow fairways, and extended distances surely will. The course rating sits around 78, with a slope of 155 in its most demanding setup if you needed any more emphasis.

Who will it suit? Well, Bryson DeChambeau will, of course, enjoy the opportunity for long drives, but you'd be hard-pushed to say that the likes of Scottie Scheffler and Jon Rahm won’t thrive here as well.

How can I watch the 2025 Ryder Cup in the U.S.?

How does The Ryder Cup work?

Not everyone tuning in will be familiar with the format of the Ryder Cup, as it is very different from any other golfing event.

The format is match play, with foursomes (alternate shot) and fourballs (better ball) across Friday and Saturday. This sees two players from Team USA take on two from Team Europe, and whoever comes out on top after 18 holes earns a point for their team.

On Sunday, we move on to singles match play, where all 12 players from each side take on an opponent, with a point available for each match.

The first team to reach 14½ points secures the Ryder Cup.
