In this transatlantic duel, team spirit and solidarity are paramount.
Epic showdown on the course
Where team spirit rules
An event that plays out in style. Two teams going head-to-head. Three days of intense competition. The Ryder Cup brings together the world’s top players in a unique setting.
Inaugurated in 1927, The Ryder Cup is one of the most watched sporting events in the world. Every two years, this competition pits Europe against the United States and features emerging talents, established champions and golfing legends.
Chasing victory together
The Ryder Cup creates a spirit of camaraderie that rises above the usual rivalries of the professional circuit. Each team is guided by a former champion acting as a non-playing captain. This particular arrangement, along with the intensity of the match-ups in both pairs and singles, promotes a real sense of fraternity. Rolex began its association with the competition in 1995, as a partner of the European team. In 2021, the brand became Worldwide Partner of the biennial event.
The Ryder Cup is the purest form of competition we have in our sport. We play a lot of individual tournaments but to come together as a team and do something for the collective rather than just yourself is special.
