The challenge between continents continues!
The Ryder Cup is the most important international golf event. First played in the United States in 1927, it is named after British business man Samuel Ryder, who donated the trophy.
The tournament does not include prizes: the cup and the honor of victory are at stake.
The Ryder Cup faces the United States and Europe and is the only sporting event in which the Old Continent competes as a team. It is played every two years alternately in a European or American city.
On 14 December 2015, Italy won the right to host the 2023 Ryder Cup. The race will take place in Rome and the official gaming venue will be the Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: it will be the third time that the most prestigious competition of golf will be played outside Great Britain (after the edition hosted by Spain in 1997 and by France in 2018).
The Ryder Cup takes place over a total of six days, three in practice and three in the competition, during which the top 12 European golfers and the top 12 Americans compete for the prestigious trophy. The capillary diffusion of golf in the world and the presence in the field of the strongest continental golfers make the Ryder Cup a unique event.
The Ryder Cup 2023 will be played at the Marco Simone Golf & Country Club in Guidonia (Rome), a field selected by IMG, (advisor for the Italian candidature). The field has been chosen by RCE (Ryder Cup Europe) because it is considered the only one with the technical characteristics and infrastructures suitable to host the Ryder Cup 2023 sports competition.
