Team USA won the 2025 Junior Ryder Cup after completing an impressive 17.5-12.5 victory over Team Europe in New York.
Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler are among the players to have previously featured in three-day mixed event, held the same week as the Ryder Cup, where 12 of the best male and female junior players from Europe take on the United States.
The competition sees sessions of foursomes, mixed foursomes and mixed fourballs over the first two days at Nassau Country Club, with the United States taking a 10-8 advantage over Europe into the final-day singles.
The singles were due to be held at Bethpage Black but moved back to the venue for the previous two days, due to inclement weather leading to changes to the Ryder Cup schedule, where Team USA won 7.5 of the 12 points on offer to reclaim the trophy.
Victory is Team USA eighth in 13 editions of the Junior Ryder Cup, with Team Europe – who claimed a record-breaking win in the 2023 contest – winning four and the 2006 contest ending in a tie.

Oscar Couilleau claimed the biggest win of the week for Stephen Gallacher’s Europe by thrashing Tyler Mawhinney 7&6, but wins for Zoe Cusack and Lunden Esterline pulled Team USA within a point of victory.
