The 2025 Ryder Cup will be held at the Bethpage Black Course from September 25 to 28. Despite the fact that the event is a few months away, the hype surrounding it is immense. This anticipation has grown significantly following the PGA Championship, as the tournament's rankings have changed dramatically.
In the Ryder Cup, Team USA and Team Europe go head-to-head with 12 golfers in each team. Six of them will qualify based on the points assigned to them for their performances. The remaining six will be chosen by the captains of the two teams. This year, Keegan Bradley of Team USA and Luke Donald of Team Europe will lead the two teams.
The tournament's rankings underwent significant modifications. Scottie Scheffler's first rank has become more prominent, as his points increased to 21,490.75. Interestingly, apart from Scheffler, Harris English rose through the top ranks.
He's seventh on the list, with 6282.30 points. He moved up five positions following his performances at the 2025 PGA Championship. Bryson DeChambeau also moved up two spots, to third on the list with 10318.00 points.
On the other side, Team Europe's standings remained unchanged following the second major of the year. The Ryder Cup's X (previously called Twitter) account informed fans of the changes with a message that read:
"Two majors down, two to go. The U.S. Team Rankings following Scottie Scheffler's win at the @PGAChampionship 🇺🇸."
Talking about Harris English's performance at the 2025 PGA Championship, he finished six strokes under par, tied for second place.
