All eligible American players will be able to earn Ryder Cup points through the 2024 and 2025 PGA Tour season. These are broken down as follows:

• 2025 majors: 1.5 points per $1,000 earned for all players making the cut

No points will be awarded for opposite-field events.

All eligible European players can earn Ryder Cup points across five different bands in the 2025 DP World Tour season. These are:

• Band 5: Major championships – 5,000 points
• Band 4: PGA Tour Signature Events/The Players/FedEx Cup Playoff events – 3,000 points

The qualifying period for each team ends in August.

For Team USA, the top six eligible players following the BMW Championship will make the team.

For Team Europe, the top six ranked players following the Betfred British Masters will qualify automatically for Luke Donald’s side.

Each captain will then have six wildcard picks.
