The 2023 Ryder Cup: Pairings and Tee Times
The highly anticipated 2023 Ryder Cup is just hours away from commencing, and we finally have the official Day 1 pairings and tee times. Notable changes can be seen in the United States team with Zach Johnson mixing things up, while Luke Donald has opted for heavyweight pairings on the European side.
One surprising development in the opening foursomes session, which starts at 1:35 a.m. ET on Friday, is that the long-standing partnership of Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas will not be playing. The dynamic duo from past Ryder Cups will take a backseat as their teammates strive to secure crucial points at the beginning of the 44th Ryder Cup.
On the European side, nearly all notable players are participating. Europe is going all out against the Americans in the opening session. Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton will lead the charge, with Rory McIlroy and Tommy Fleetwood closing out the session. Sandwiched between these two groups is a dream pairing of Viktor Hovland and Ludvig Aberg, a truly formidable combination.
Here are the foursomes matchups for the first session on Friday morning:
- Match 1 (1:35 a.m.): Scottie Scheffler & Sam Burns vs. Jon Rahm & Tyrrell Hatton
- Match 2 (1:50 a.m.): Max Homa & Brian Harman vs. Viktor Hovland & Ludvig Aberg Follow Google News
