Ryder Cup 2023: preview

In order to win the 2023 Ryder Cup, Team USA will need to eclipse both the Battle of Brookline and the Miracle at Medinah at Marco Simone Golf and Country Club in Rome today. Europe are leading 10.5 - 5.5 ahead of Sunday's singles matches, with Luke Donald's men ony needing four more points to wrestle back the trophy.

Despite the uneven scoreline, the final day is poised wonderfully. USA's resurgence at the end of yesterday has shifted both the mood and momentum, and to outsiders at least, it appears likelier that carpark flareups would serve to galvanize the trailing team than steady the nerves of the unit trying to get themselves over the line.

Sunday's action begins with a blockbuster clash between Rahm and Scheffler, both of whom have been rested to aid their preparation. It's a rematch of the tie that the world No.1 won two years ago, and its outcome could set the tone for the rest of the day's play.

We sadly won't get McIlroy vs Cantlay round two, but the matchup between Aberg – who was competing on the university circuit as recently as June! – and Koepka promises to be fascinating after the young rookie dominated the brash American yesterday.

Read on to make sure you know how to watch a 2023 Ryder Cup live stream from wherever you are. We've also broken down the tee times and matches for Sunday's play below.

Watch a Ryder Cup live stream from anywhere

If you're abroad right now, you might not be able to watch the Ryder Cup as you would if you were at home, as broadcasters can detect your location based on your IP address, and may automatically block your access.

A Virtual Private Network (VPN) will help you get around this obstacle. It creates a private connection between your device and the internet and can set your device to appear as if it's anywhere in the world. 

We rate ExpressVPN as the best VPN. It offers a 30-day guarantee for all your money back if you're not happy with the service.
