Jim Furyk to captain Team USA for 2027 Ryder Cup

Jim Furyk has been confirmed as Team USA captain for the 2027 Ryder Cup at Adare Manor in Ireland. The 55-year-old becomes one of only four US captains to have led the team on multiple occasions since 1979, when continental Europe was established as a team. Tiger Woods had been the favourite to take over from Keegan Bradley as the US Team’s captain for the 2027 event, but chose to rule himself out of consideration following his decision to take a break from golf after a car crash in March.

The PGA Tour has cancelled its 2026 season-opening event in Hawaii after failing to find an alternative venue to host The Sentry. The tournament, which was to be played from 8-11 January, had to be moved from the Plantation Course at Kapalua on the Island of Maui because of drought conditions. However, the PGA Tour said that, “having assessed alternate venues in Hawaii and beyond” it could not play the tournament because of “logistical challenges”.

Less than one hour after he teed off on Sunday afternoon, Scottie Scheffler had effectively won his first Open Championship title. The world number one was only walking off the fourth green but the game was already up. A starting four-shot advantage over the field had grown to seven at a sun-kissed Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland.

Scottie Scheffler continued his imperious march towards a first Open Championship title in a third round which had contained all the ingredients to set up a classic. Instead, world number one Scheffler, who has won the past nine times he has held the 54-hole lead, will take a four-shot advantage over China’s Li Haotong into Sunday’s final round. Victory on Sunday at Royal Portrush would complete the third leg of the career Grand Slam, having won May’s US PGA Championship, to add to two Masters titles.
