Ryder Cup 2023 tee times, TV schedule, live streams & more to watch Day 1 coverage in UK

The Ryder Cup finally returns as the action gets underway at Marco Simone Golf and Country Club near Rome in Italy on Friday, September 29. 

The US comes into the 2023 edition as the reigning champions after claiming a huge 19-9 victory at Whistling Straits, Wisconsin in 2021 — the biggest scoreline differential in the modern era. 

But Team Europe look strong heading into this tournament with some of their biggest stars seemingly arriving in the Italian capital in perfect form. It's also worth remembering that the US haven't won on European soil since all the way back in 1993 which gives their opposition a potential psychological edge. 

Here's how you can catch all the action here in the UK.

Ryder Cup 2023 purse

Even though the Ryder Cup is one of the sport's most well-known competitions, golfers who play in the tournament don't receive any prize money. 

That's right, £0 and that's even if their team wins. 

That doesn't tell the whole story though, as players do receive compensation in other ways. 

According to reports, the PGA gifts each member of Team America with $200,000 that they donate to the charity or charities of their choosing. Half of that amount goes to set organisations, including the Boys & Girls Club of America, the Drive, Chip, & Putt Championship, and the PGA Junior League. 

As for Team Europe, it's become a tradition for their captain to give each player a gift for their participation. For example, back in 2018 when Europe won the tournament in France, captain Thomas Bjorn bought each of his team a personalised Rolex.

It remains to be seen if 2023 captain Luke Donald will carry on the tradition this time around.

Ryder Cup past winners

In the tournament's history, Team USA has captured 27 wins, while Team Europe only has 14. However, in the last 20 years, Team USA has only won three times (2008, 2016, 2021).
