In the verdant Irish countryside, set among the sprawling grounds of a 19^th century gothic masterpiece, you’ll find a golf course shaped by two of the game’s greatest architects, that’s maintained like no other on the continent, and is preparing to host golf’s greatest show. This is Adare Manor, home of the 2027 Ryder Cup.

Named after a man who made his fortune selling seeds almost a hundred years ago, the Ryder Cup is now golf’s most eagerly awaited event, consistently delivering iconic moments.

Hailing from a small Pennsylvanian industrial town, Tom Fazio’s fifty-year career has seen him ascend to the summit of the golf architecture world. With, quite literally, countless golf courses to his name, this is the story of the designer who never fails to split opinion.

In late September 2025, transatlantic golf fans all around the world will turn their attention to New York. Boasting an unparalleled ability to create drama, intrigue and controversy, expect no different from the Ryder Cup in 2025 as we grapple with the spectacle of a playing captain, new qualification systems and lofty European ambitions.  

It’s not often you find a golf course that questions you on the first tee: are you brave enough to take me on? Let alone on a public course. But this is Bethpage’s Black Course, the 2025 Ryder Cup host venue, and here in New York they don’t hold punches.
