US Team: Ryder Cup Preview
Steve Stricker captains Team US in the 2021 Ryder Cup. The veteran has an enviable selection of young talent to call upon, including Xander Scauffele; Patrick Cantlay; Collin Morikawa, and Daniel Berger. As well as some matchplay-golf seasoned-veterans: the likes of Jim Furyk and Phil Mickelson.
Team US came out second best in the last Ryder Cup showdown, losing 17.5-10.5 in France, back in 2018. This is one of the most talented American sides ever fielded in the Ryder Cup, however, containing eight of the current Top 10 ranked players on the PGA circuit, and, with the action set to unfold in Wisconsin at Whistling Straits, US, it’s little wonder the bookmakers have the Americans at 8/15 favorites.
The action begins on Friday at 14:00 BST on SkySports.

Team US: Ryder Cup Betting Tips:
This is possibly the youngest, most exciting American team ever to compete for Ryder Cup honours. As such, our betting prediction for Team US is for the Top US Rookie:
With 242.87 points gained at just 43 events, 29-year-old Patrick Cantlay is currently ranked 4th in the world. Expect to see Cantlay (5/2) continue his good form come Friday and emerge as the Top Rookie Points Scorer for Team USA.
Bet on Patrick Cantlay to be Top US Rookie Pointscorer (5/2) at Betfred
