Jon Rahm entered the podium on Wednesday in Valderrama ahead of Liv Golf Andalucia and immediately faced a question about the event that fell on the world of professional men’s golf.
Not the PGA Tour-Liv Agreement. This is frozen and shows no signs of thawing. Not the open championship of the next week in Royal Portrush, the last Major of the year, this is drawing two tournaments together for the second time to the last this calendar year. Of course, the 153rd edition of the oldest golf Major will take the center next week in northern Ireland, but it still exists within the 2025 season context. And we can’t help but see most of that season through lenses of Ryder Cup in Bethpage Black.
Rahm, who has not paid his penalties in the Tour DP and whose appeal is still in the judicial system, opened his oppressor at Liv Andalucia Repeating that he plans to play in the Ryder Cup. Next came a spicy pursuit if those desires are more than a dream than reality, given his Signs to the European Team Points List .
“I can still qualify, so I hope to qualify, and it’s a reality,” Rahn said. “I’m very sure I will have to win next week, but it’s an opportunity, and if not, we’ll see what happens. But I would like to think I have played quite well, if possible, be a choice.”

Rahm was not the only Spaniard who faced the Ryder Cup Inquisition Wednesday.
Sergio Garcia, who claimed in the 2025 PGA Championship that he would not accept the choice of a captain Given his poor form, he changed his melody with the event two months away.
“I had a good conversation with (Captain Luke Donald) last week, and we both know what we want,” Garcia said. “The only thing I can do is continue to work hard, continue to build my faith, and if I am able to do it, then it must be fine. We will see.
“The choice will depend on him. For me it will be the way I play. Of course, yes, if I play well, I think I have a good opportunity, a good chance to choose. If I don’t do it, then it will depend a little on where I stay or how things are going. We will still see.”
Garcia is not the only member of his Fireballs GC team hoping for Donald to call their name for Bethpage. David Puig is among a small part of the players seen as a possible opportunity for one of the last points in the team of Europe, though it is likely to require a final stretch of flames to slam it over some of the biggest names passing for those points.
Last week at the BMW International International of the DP in Munich, Germany, Donald was paired with Jordan Smith and David Puig. Team Europe often uses DP events at Tour World to pair their captain with different possible ryder cups to give them a close look at their options. In Austria, Donald was paired with Martin Couvra and Eugenio Chacarra. This week at Scottish Open, Donald will remove it with Harry Hall and Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen.
That pairing with Donald tells Garcia that Puig has the attention of the captain and that they both face the next two months to try and secure their place. But they have a chance.
“David played with him last week in Munich, so I think Luke got a place of the front row to see what David is capable of, and I’m sure I don’t like talking about other people, but I’m sure David is on his radar. I have no doubt,” Garcia said. “I think, at the end of the day, there are still two, two and a half months to go, and the only thing David and the only thing I would advise him to do is continue to play well, continue to do what he is doing, continue to believe in himself, and then everything that has to happen.”
One thousand seven hundred and sixteen miles away in North Berwick, Scotland, the great champion twice and the main element of Ryder Cup Xander Schauffle also faced questions about Bethpage. These questions had nothing to do with his place in the team, but for the biggest question in Golf: Will Keegan Bradley be a captain playing for Team USA?
“Lynhen clear that he is winning it,” Schauffe told Bradley, who recently won the traveler championship. “If you ask him, he is playing the best golf of his career. We just want 12 playing our best. You know, I think this is a kind of what really comes down. So he is simply flying up in the vice president. I don’t think he will make a decision he regrets.”
The Ryder Cup is the building that ends the season that connects everything, by Harris Engly’s Farmers Insurance Open win over Russell Henley’s winning victory for the unexpected campaign of two Brian Campbell wins.
When Jj Spaun won the US Open at Oakmont, it was one of the first topics presented by his coach. Patrick Reed’s Victory in Liv Dallas He came with the fans’ voice column who cheered to put it in the team.
Rory Mcilroy Grand Slam Quest’s career – well, and the constant predominance of Scottie Scheffler – owned the first part of the golf season. But since then, the Ryder Cup has cast a shadow over everything.
That is why Ben Griffin, Andrew Novak, Spaun, Henley and others have become leading characters. Their raised game has added to their bank account and put them able to be the top players at the New York Upsate in late September. Spraying on the intrigue that comes with Bradley potentially becoming the first captain to play by Arnold Palmer plus a dose of uncertainty given the constant state of golf, and you have a recipe for what has become dominant – the only? – The story scene left in 2025.
Next week, one will catch the south Claret, and it will be a career -changing victory. Then, very soon, there is a good chance to win (if it will be from an American or European near the bubble) will be used as another entry point to talk about what will come to Bethpage Black.
The Ryder Cup is everywhere. Its presence is possessing both shifts, shaking around the players that exist at all levels. Because these opportunities, what is given to 24 players this fall, are finite. They cannot be purchased, and their impact on inheritance is inexcusable.
“Hard hard to explain because it means so much,” Rahm told Ryder Cup. “It is such a special event. The last three have been all very wonderful in different ways, even in the last – the process all week, society, friendships and memories that have been made are quite special. But the last in Rome in Rome was so entertaining. It was so unbelievable. win again the land of the SH.BA
