Yeah, the FedEx Cup Playoffs have arrived to occupy our time for a few weeks, but since the last putt dropped at the Open Championship, we all know what the next big event is — the Ryder Cup, Sept. 26-28 at Bethpage State Park's Black Course. So any bit of hype just adds to the excitement. Check out this Ryder Cup video "New York State of Mind | Countdown to the 2025 Ryder Cup." This early line from Tony Jacklin gives you a sense of what waits in late September. "You need to be armored mentally and you've got to turn that into determination," he said.

How the four-time major champion is going about his business is what begs the question of whether he will ultimately be in the GOAT discussion.
