How the Rider Cup works
In the Ryder Cup, 12 European players compete with 12 US players in different types of competitions to accumulate points for each team, best ball, four ball and match play.
28 points will be offered over three days, with the first past 14 points winning. If the match ends with a 14-14 draw, the previous winner will hold the trophy. If the match is tied up, you will earn half the points of the team.
