RYDER CUP ATTENDEE CODE OF CONDUCT

For All Attendees Attending or Supporting the Ryder Cup

The Ryder Cup is one of golf’s most storied competitions, where passion, patriotism, and sportsmanship come together on a global stage. As a supporter of USA, Europe, or simply the game of golf, you are expected to uphold the highest standards of conduct and courtesy.

RESPECT THE GAME

Honor the traditions and customs of golf, including silence during shots, respectful applause, and fair play.
Avoid disruptive behavior, including heckling, taunting, or intentional distraction of players.
Recognize that golf is a game of integrity; your conduct reflects on the team(s) you support and the event itself.

RESPECT EACH OTHER

Celebrate your team with pride, but never at the expense of others.
Avoid abusive, obscene, or discriminatory language or gestures.
Treat fellow attendees, players, officials, volunteers, and staff with courtesy—regardless of nationality.

CHEER WITH CLASS

Show your passion positively. Chants, cheers, and songs should be respectful and uplifting.
Celebrate great play from both teams. Sportsmanship is not partisan; it’s universal.
Alcohol should be enjoyed responsibly. Intoxication, aggression, or harassment is unacceptable.

ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY

Discrimination, hate speech, or harassment based on race, gender, nationality, religion, disability, sexual orientation, or any other identity will not be tolerated. Violators will be removed from the premises and subject to further penalties, including bans from future events.
Attendees consuming alcohol should do so in a responsible manner. Overly intoxicated attendees will be removed from the premises and subject to further penalties, including bans from future events.

WE ARE ALL AMBASSADORS

As spectators, we are integral to the Ryder Cup's legacy. Our behavior shapes the experience for players, their families, and spectators worldwide. Let's work together to ensure the Ryder Cup remains a true celebration of golf, unity, and international respect.

Junior tickets cannot be obtained in advance and are available even if the Ryder Cup is sold out.
No registration is required.
All individuals, regardless of age, must have a hospitality ticket to enter any hospitality venue/area; complimentary junior grounds tickets do not include hospitality access
On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, all juniors must have a paid ticket to enter the grounds, as complimentary admission is not available.
