Top U.S. Ryder Cup Stars Gather for Crucial Pre-Cup Tournament
29 Aug
Summary
- 10 U.S. Ryder Cup team members commit to Procore Championship
- Xander Schauffele, a notable absence, cites longer break
- Tournament expects strongest field in its history
As the 2025 Ryder Cup approaches, the U.S. team is taking steps to prepare for the highly anticipated event. On August 29th, 2025, 10 members of the U.S. Ryder Cup team officially committed to the Procore Championship, a PGA Tour event that will be held September 11-14 at the Silverado Resort's North Course in Napa, California.
The Procore Championship is seen as a crucial warm-up event for the Ryder Cup, which will take place two weeks later. However, one notable absence from the Procore field is Xander Schauffele, a two-time major winner who failed to qualify for the FedEx Cup playoffs for the first time in his career. Schauffele acknowledged that while many players want to compete to stay fresh, he will have an even longer break before the Ryder Cup.
Despite Schauffele's absence, the Procore Championship is expected to welcome one of the strongest fields in its history. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, reigning U.S. Open champion J.J. Spaun, and other top stars like Justin Thomas, Patrick Cantlay, Collin Morikawa, and Cameron Young have all committed to the event. The tournament's chairman, Mike Damaso, expressed excitement at the opportunity for fans to watch these elite players compete.
