Prices almost double those in Rome three years ago

Organisers promise ‘enhanced onsite experience’ for fans

Ryder Cup Europe has doubled the cost of a ticket to attend next year’s marquee event when the US will seek to regain the trophy at Adare Manor in County Limerick.

Organisers will charge fans €499 (£434) for a daily ticket when a batch are released to those living in the Republic of Ireland, where the centenary event is being held, on Friday. That is almost double the €260 face value spectators paid in Rome three years ago.

Practice-day covers will be a more resonably priced at €89 for adults and €20 for children for the Tuesday and Wednesday sessions, rising to €179 and €30 for Thursday, which includes the opening ceremony.
