Europe's Ryder Cup team is poised for an electrifying battle at Bethpage Black, with Spanish sensation Jon Rahm and Northern Ireland's Rory McIlroy leading the charge under captain Luke Donald.
The dynamic duo, both former world number ones, are expected to play pivotal roles in Europe's quest to reclaim the prestigious trophy on American soil. Rahm, known for his fiery competitiveness, and McIlroy, a four-time major champion, bring a wealth of experience and leadership to the team.
A Formidable Partnership
The pairing of Rahm and McIlroy could prove to be a masterstroke by captain Donald. Their contrasting styles – Rahm's power and precision combined with McIlroy's flair and creativity – make them a nightmare for opponents in both foursomes and fourballs.
Home Advantage for Rahm
With the 2025 Ryder Cup heading to Spain's iconic Real Club Valderrama, Rahm will be particularly motivated to secure victory at Bethpage as a springboard for what could be an emotional homecoming in two years' time.
The European team, buoyed by recent successes in the tournament, will be looking to continue their dominance after a comprehensive victory in Rome last year. Donald's leadership and the team's blend of youth and experience make them formidable opponents for the American side.
