Scottie Scheffler and U.S. Ryder Cup Team Turn Up the Heat at the Procore Championship

The golf world felt like a pressure-cooker week as the U.S. Ryder Cup squad used a high-profile tournament as their last on-course rehearsal. The Procore Championship serves as a final on-course tune-up for the Ryder Cup, and players treated it like a dress rehearsal with extra swagger.

Ten of the twelve U.S. Ryder Cup players participated in the Procore Championship, and the roster was packed with heavy hitters. The players include Scottie Scheffler, J.J. Spaun, Russell Henley, Harris English, Justin Thomas, Collin Morikawa, Ben Griffin, Cameron Young, Patrick Cantlay, and Sam Burns. Only two notable absences were felt in the starting field: Only Xander Schauffele and LIV Golfer Bryson DeChambeau are absent from the field.

The reasons for absence were personal and clear. Schauffele opted out of the event following the birth of his first child, a joyful family moment that kept him away from the tune-up. Meanwhile, Keegan Bradley, the U.S. captain, attended the tournament but did not compete, keeping a close eye on the squad while letting the players do the heavy lifting on the course.

When the smoke cleared, Scheffler won the tournament, marking his sixth victory of 2025. It was a clinical performance — He finished with a total of 19-under 269 after a final-round score of 67, leaving a signature stamp on a week that mattered for more than just prize money. Scheffler’s victory came over teammate Ben Griffin, who scored 70 in the final round and finished one stroke behind Scheffler, a tight finish that kept fans on their feet.

Beyond the leaderboard, the week played out like a chemistry camp with clubs. The Procore Championship provided a chance for the players to build team chemistry and camaraderie before the Ryder Cup. Team routines, shared dinners, and off-course activities were more than PR — The camaraderie and team spirit were enhanced through shared dinners and activities during the week, and the locker-room buzz felt different this time around.

Team member J.J. Spaun noted the importance of creating a team atmosphere during the Procore event, a sentiment that underlined every handshake and practice session. Players managed the awkward balance of competing for themselves while acting as teammates because Players focused on competing in the Procore Championship while also preparing for the Ryder Cup.

Preparation was a common theme in conversations and in the swing bays. Collin Morikawa emphasized the need for better preparation compared to previous Ryder Cups, and Scottie Scheffler was candid in his own way about wanting to be sharper. Scheffler acknowledged he did not feel as prepared during the last Ryder Cup and sought to improve this time, and his results in this event suggest he’s doing just that.

The stakes go beyond the red, white and blue. The Procore Championship also has significance for players outside the Ryder Cup context, as it affects their standings for future PGA Tour events and their tour cards. Plenty of those taking swings here were balancing national pride with career math, and that mix made for electric competition.

With the Ryder Cup set nearby, the scene already has that spine-tingling feel. The Ryder Cup will take place at Bethpage Black in Farmingdale, New York, from September 26-28, 2025, and the atmosphere leading into the match is already thick. The atmosphere leading into the Ryder Cup is filled with support from fans and heightened expectations for the American team, and after a week like this, expectations only ratchet up.
