USA will be 'underdogs' in 2027 Ryder Cup - Furyk
United States Ryder Cup captain Jim Furyk says his team will be "underdogs" when they attempt to end more than 30 years of pain on European soil in next year's edition at Adare Manor.
United States captain Jim Furyk has declared his team will be underdogs when they compete for the second consecutive Ryder Cup on European soil in 2027 at Adare Manor. The Americans have not secured a victory outside the United States since 1993, having lost all seven matches on European soil since winning the Belfry tournament in 1993.
Furyk, who oversaw a 17½-10½ defeat for the US in France during the 2018 Ryder Cup, was appointed as the team's second captain following a loss to Europe at Bethpage Black in 2025. During a news conference, Furyk acknowledged the historical significance of the event and openly admitted that the US will be underdogs, with no secret that 34 years have passed since their last European triumph.
