As part of the weeklong festivities, PGA of America Youth Day will tee off on Thursday, Sept. 25. That’s the same day the world’s best golfers get in their final practice swings in at Bethpage Black.
High school golf fans are being invited to the course for free, so long as they come with an adult who has a ticket.
And it’s not just the pros in action. Thursday also features the Junior Ryder Cup singles matches, where 24 of the best junior golfers from the U.S. and Europe will go head-to-head on the very same course where the legends will play.
The names might be unfamiliar now, but that’s where players like world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy and Jordan Spieth got their starts.
“We look forward to hosting local high school students and PGA Jr. League teams on the eve of the 45th Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black,” said Bryan Karns, 2025 Ryder Cup Director. “PGA of America Youth Day offers attendees a fantastic opportunity to watch the U.S. and European players prepare for golf’s greatest team event while also experiencing the excitement of the Junior Ryder Cup’s singles matches as the future stars of our game compete head to head.”
The PGA of America says Junior admission tickets do not require registration and will be available on-site at the ticket office and are available even if the Ryder Cup is sold out.
Bethpage Black hosts the Ryder Cup for the first time Sept. 23-28.
