USA will be 'underdogs' in 2027 Ryder Cup - Furyk

United States Ryder Cup captain Jim Furyk says his team will be "underdogs" when they attempt to end more than 30 years of pain on European soil in next year's edition at Adare Manor.

Furyk is hoping to lead the USA to a first Ryder Cup win on European soil since 1993

The Americans have not claimed an away Ryder Cup victory since 1993, losing all seven contests in Europe since that victory at The Belfry.

Furyk, who oversaw a 17½-10½ loss to Europe in France in 2018, was handed a second stint as captain earlier this year following Keegan Bradley's team's defeat to Luke Donald's Europe at Bethpage Black in 2025.

"We know what we are up against, we also know it's been 34 years since we won in Europe. There is no secret, I'm going to hear it over and over again so I am going to embrace it," Furyk said during a news conference at Adare Manor in County Limerick.

"Luke and Dodo [Edoardo Molinari, vice-captain] have the opportunity to set the golf course up, tip the scales for Europe. We're the underdogs.
