The Ryder Cup’s opening ceremony is always one of the highlights of the biennial competition. It’s a time when both teams make an entrance — as well as their partners — dressed to impress. We hear speeches from the captains, and the match-ups are announced for the first day of play.

This year played out a bit differently, however. The opening ceremony was moved up by a day to avoid potential thunderstorms on Thursday. So while the pomp and circumstance of the event remained intact, the match-ups announcement will wait until Thursday, the day before the start of the competition.
The atmosphere at New York’s Bethpage Black was festive on Wednesday, and the U.S. team looked resplendent in head-to-toe Ralph Lauren, which is supplying the U.S. team’s wardrobe for the seventh consecutive time.
The U.S. team’s natty suits were composed of five elements: trousers, shirt, tie, pocket square and blazer, plus sunglasses and loafers. Each item that is available for purchase is linked below.
