Ryder Cup Outright Odds 2025:
Punters can bet on the outright tournament winner of the 2025 Ryder Cup at William Hill. Here is the current state of the market, at the time of writing:
- USA – 8/11
- Europe – 11/8
- Tie – 12/1
If the Ryder Cup ends all square at 14-14, defending champions Team Europe would retain the trophy. However, the visitors will be hoping to clinch an outright victory on American soil for the first time in well over a decade.
Spokesperson for William Hill, Lee Phelps, said: “Luke Donald’s picks have brought clarity to Team Europe’s line-up, and while both teams have now confirmed who will represent them at Bethpage, the market still sees the USA as the favourites to take the cup off Europe’s hands.
“At 8/11, the hosts are well fancied to get the job done, but Europe’s odds of 11/8 reflect a strong and balanced squad capable of causing an upset. We weren’t anticipating too many surprises with Donald’s picks, and now look forward to the first tee shot in a little over three weeks time.”
With just a matter of weeks until the 2025 Ryder Cup gets underway, all eyes will be on the latest golf news ahead of the competition.
