Welcome to CaddyBytes.com’s Tournament's page for the 2016 Ryder Cup Matches to be played at the Hazeltine National GC near Minneapolis, MN. The matches take place over three days, Friday through Sunday. On the Friday, there are four four ball matches and four foursomes matches in the afternoon. On the Saturday, the same schedule repeats. On the Sunday, there are twelve singles matches. A foursomes match is a competition between two teams of two golfers. The golfers on the same team take alternate shots throughout the match, with the same ball. Each hole is won by the team that completes the hole in the fewest shots. Not all players need play on Friday and Saturday; the captain can select any eight players for each of the four rounds of play over these two days.The winning team is determined by cumulative total points. Under Ryder Cup rules, the defending champion team from the previous games only needs to halve the cumulative point totals to retain the Cup, while the opposing team must win it outright. Europe has held the Cup for the past two events winning them both. The US Team is lead by captain Davis Love with the Euro's are lead by Darren Clarke..
