Yes, the United States won the last Ryder Cup over Team Europe with a decisive 19-9 victory.
But with the 2023 edition of the event taking place in Italy, it’s going to be a tough task for the U.S. to win on foreign soil. And Europe’s roster is definitely stacked with some of the biggest names in the golf world.
On Monday Sept. 4, captain Luke Donald announced his picks to fill out the squad that already had serious star power on it, filling in any gaps with experience, team comradery and players in good form. It’s a REALLY good roster top to bottom.
Here’s the full team:
