Here’s the Full Team USA Ryder Cup Roster for 2025

Team USA is locked in for Bethpage Black, with six automatic qualifiers and six captain’s picks chosen by Keegan Bradley.

Here’s a breakdown of all 12 players on the roster, what they bring to the table, and why fans should be excited.

Automatic Qualifiers:

Scottie Scheffler

The World No. 1 leads the team with unmatched consistency. Scheffler has been the most dominant ball-striker on Tour, ranking near the top in strokes gained tee-to-green, and his calm presence makes him the backbone of Team USA.

J.J. Spaun

A surprise qualifier who earned his spot with steady play and clutch performances late in the season. Spaun may not be the flashiest name, but his ability to grind out solid rounds could make him a sneaky asset in match play.

Xander Schauffele

Already a proven Ryder Cup contributor, Schauffele combines consistency with a cool temperament under pressure. He’s one of the best all-around players on the team and often thrives in high-stakes environments.

Russell Henley

Known for his reliable ball-striking and precision with the irons, Henley brings a steady hand to the team. He may not have the biggest length off the tee, but his accuracy and composure make him an ideal fit for foursomes.

English is the quiet competitor who always seems to deliver when it matters most. With a smooth putting stroke and plenty of experience, he brings locker-room steadiness and on-course reliability.

Bryson DeChambeau

The power player of the squad, Bryson will intimidate opponents with his length and creativity. His analytical approach to the game paired with raw power makes him a unique weapon in both four-ball and singles play.

Cameron Young

Another Ryder Cup rookie, Young earned his pick with a clutch win late in the season and has ties to Bethpage, adding to the hometown story. His length off the tee and aggressive style make him an exciting addition.
