The 44th Ryder Cup was a series of golf matches between teams representing the DP World Tour (Europe) and the PGA of America (United States) for the Ryder Cup, that was held in Italy from 29 September to 1 October 2023 at Marco Simone Golf and Country Club in Guidonia Montecelio, northeast of Rome.[1] The biennial event was originally scheduled for 2022, before the 43rd matches were postponed into 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[2][3]

The team captains were Luke Donald for Europe and Zach Johnson for the United States; Donald replaced Henrik Stenson, who was removed from the role by the European Tour after joining LIV Golf.[4] Each team of twelve players was made up of six automatic qualifiers and six captain's picks. The top thirteen players in the Official World Golf Ranking played in the event, the first time the entire top ten had done so since the inauguration of the rankings in 1986. The matches were contested with four foursomes and four fourball matches on each of the first two days, with twelve singles matches on Sunday. Europe went into the matches undefeated in Europe since 1993; they required 141⁄2 to regain the trophy they last won in 2018; as holder of the trophy, having won in 2021, the USA needed 14 points to retain it.
In the opening foursomes matches on Friday morning, Europe secured a clean sweep to jump into a 4–0 lead. In the fourballs in the afternoon, the USA were unable to hold onto leads in several of the matches and fell further behind as Europe went into day two ahead, 61⁄2–11⁄2.[5] On Saturday morning, Max Homa and Brian Harman won the USA their first match of the event, but with Europe winning the remaining three foursomes, including a record 9 and 7 victory for Viktor Hovland and rookie Ludvig Åberg over world number one Scottie Scheffler and PGA champion Brooks Koepka, the lead was extended to 91⁄2–21⁄2. In the afternoon fourballs, the USA won their first session to cut the deficit to 5 points, at 101⁄2–51⁄2.[6]
On Sunday, Europe secured the first point as Hovland defeated Collin Morikawa; another half point came when Jon Rahm tied his match with Scheffler by winning the 18th hole. When Rory McIlroy and Tyrrell Hatton won their matches, Europe required just half a point from the remaining seven matches out on the course.[7] The next four matches to finish all went to Team USA. Europe's victory was ensured when Tommy Fleetwood won the 16th hole to go dormie two up against Rickie Fowler; Fleetwood won the 17th hole to confirm the win for Team Europe.[8] A win for Robert MacIntyre over U.S. Open champion Wyndham Clark in match twelve, and a tie for Shane Lowry against Jordan Spieth brought the final score to 161⁄2–111⁄2.[9]

Sunday's matches
editThe singles match-ups were announced on Saturday evening, with both captains sending out their highest ranked players early. The first match to finish was match two, with Viktor Hovland defeating Collin Morikawa, 4 and 3. The first match between Jon Rahm and Scottie Scheffler was close throughout, with Rahm winning the last hole to tie. Match four was next to finish, as Rory McIlroy defeated Sam Burns, 3 and 1. In match three, Patrick Cantlay won the first US point of the singles, defeating Justin Rose, 2 and 1. When Tyrrell Hatton defeated Brian Harman, 3 and 2 in match six, Europe had moved onto 14 points and needed half a point more to win the Ryder Cup.[61]
In match five, Matt Fitzpatrick missed a putt on the final hole to tie his match to Max Homa. Matches seven though nine all went the way of the US with Brooks Koepka, Justin Thomas and Xander Schauffele all winning, to take the overall score to 14–11. When Rickie Fowler conceded Tommy Fleetwood's short putt on the 16th, having earlier hit his own tee shot into the water, to go dormie two down in match eleven, Europe were guaranteed the half-point they needed to win.[62] Very shortly afterwards, in match ten, Shane Lowry guaranteed another half point for Europe as he went 1 up through 17 holes against Jordan Spieth.[63] Fleetwood won the 17th hole to win his match 3 and 1, and confirm the victory for Europe. In match twelve, Robert MacIntyre, who had led Wyndham Clark by three holes before being pulled back to all-square, won the 15th and 16th holes before tying the 17th to win 2 and 1. In the last match to finish, Spieth won the 18th hole to tie with Lowry, and make the final score 161⁄2–111⁄2 to Europe.[64]
Europe and the USA tied the singles matches, each winning five with two tied matches.
