How to watch the 2025 Ryder Cup: Sunday Tee Times, TV listings, Viewer's Guide, Format
Jamie Squire
The 45th Ryder Cup, played this week at New York’s Bethpage Black, features 24 players, 28 matches … and more than 100 hours of live tournament and studio coverage on NBC, USA Network, Peacock and NBCSports.com utilizing more than 35 analysts and commentators. Indeed, there might not be a golf tournament in the world that’s more “covered” than the biennial matches, which have an extra layer of anticipation given the potential reception that awaits from the 40,000-plus fans expected to attend each day.
Watching on your TV or streaming online won’t necessarily allow you to replicate the raucous atmosphere likely in store on Long Island. But it will let you catch all of the action over the three days as the U.S. tries to win back the cup after falling to the Europeans outside Rome two years ago.
NBC Sports will be broadcasting from the first tee shot on Friday morning to the final putt on Sunday across its various platforms. In addition to primary coverage on USA Network and NBC, featured group coverage will be shown on Peacock, following an individual match in the morning and afternoon waves on Friday and Saturday and an early singles match on Sunday.
According to NBC Sports, the Ryder Cup production will include the most cameras being used ever in Ryder Cup on U.S. soil, with three drones, multiple bunker cams and Trackman technology on all 18 tees.
