With the conclusion of the Open Championship 2025 at Royal Portrush, the men’s golf Major season comes to an end. We won’t enjoy another Major until the Masters at Augusta in April 2026, but let’s not forget, the Ryder Cup is already on the horizon, taking place this year from 26th to 28th September at Bethpage Black (New York). One of its most anticipated protagonists, Bryson DeChambeau, issued a strong warning message this Sunday.
“This year is no joke. We are tired. Tired of losing,” declared DeChambeau after finishing fourth in the Open thanks to a spectacular comeback considering he started the event with a scorecard of 78 strokes. The double US Open 2020 winner, one of the big stars of LIV Golf, is virtually qualified for the United States team after a spectacular season, and he is already thinking about how to take advantage of the home field factor and calls on the fans to reclaim the crown.
“We are going to bring a lot of energy. It will be a tsunami. The fans are going to rally behind us at Bethpage and it will be felt,” added DeChambeau, who also revealed that the US captain, Keegan Bradley, left him an inspiring note in his locker before the Open Championship as a gesture of confidence.
His speech conveys hunger, conviction, and urgency. The United States suffered a painful defeat in the last edition held in Rome in 2023. This time, the Stars and Stripes team is confident in reversing history on a course always hostile to visitors and with a very vocal New York crowd.
At 31, DeChambeau seems to have reached a balance between his imposing physique, his tactical aggression, and an emotional maturity that has been reflected in his recent performances. His final round of 64 strokes at Portrush confirms him as one of the most in-form men at the moment. And although there are still more than two months to go until the Ryder, his message leaves no room for doubt: the countdown has already begun.
Bethpage Black is already preparing to host one of the most intense events in world sport. Europe will arrive as champions, but the United States is not settling. DeChambeau will undoubtedly be one of the key figures in an edition that promises strong emotions. The Majors are over… but the Ryder is just around the corner.
