The host team has won the past three tournaments fairly emphatically, but that may well change this year, with Team Europe featuring seven players from the 17.5 - 10.5 victory in 2018. Stalwarts Lee Westwood, Sergio García and Ian Poulter will complement the likes of world No. 1 Jon Rahm and Tommy Fleetwood.

Team USA may be green, but Stricker has four of the best five golfers in the world at his service, in Dustin Johnson, Collin Morikawa, Patrick Cantlay and captain's pick Xander Schauffele. That world No. 21 Scottie Scheffler is his lowest ranked player has to be a frightening prospect, even for a group that's as sure of itself as Team Europe appears to be.

We're not sure Stricker will be pairing Bryson DeChambeau - who had a miserable time three years ago - with Brooks Koepka, but a successful tournament for Team USA would raise the tantalising prospect of a ceasefire between these bitter rivals, with world peace surely to follow.

The stakes could barely be higher, so follow our guide as we explain how to watch a 2021 Ryder Cup live stream from anywhere.

Ryder Cup live stream: how to watch for FREE and without cable in the US

In the US, the early stages of the tournament are being shown on the Golf Channel before NBC brings it home - but every moment of the action is being shown on Peacock TV, NBC's streaming service.

If you've got the channels on cable, simply head to the Golf Channel website or the NBC website and log in with your cable credentials to stream the golf online.

How to watch Ryder Cup online without cable

As mentioned above, Peacock is the best place to watch the Ryder Cup, as it's showing all of the action, from 8am-7pm ET on Friday and Saturday, and from 12pm-6pm ET on Sunday.

Plans start from $4.99 a month (can be cancelled any time) and, as well as the golf, a Peacock TV subscription gives you access to Premier League soccer, WWE, Premiership rugby, and the best that NBC has to offer on demand.

For a fuller OTT solution, Sling TV is perhaps the best value cord-cutting service out there right now. Its Sling Blue plan hosts NBC and the first month currently costs a mere $10 (down from the standard $35), while an $11 Sports Extra add-on nets you the extra Golf Channel coverage as well.

Another great option if all you're after this week is the golf is FuboTV, as it includes both the Golf Channel and NBC in its Starter plan.

At $65 per month, it's pricier than Sling but still a reasonable alternative to traditional cable with the flexibility to cancel at any point - and if you haven't had Fubo before, you can take advantage of its FREE trial and watch the Ryder Cup 2021 without paying a penny, if that's how you choose to play it.

Watch Ryder Cup online from abroad

You needn't find yourself in a pickle if you're abroad either, as using a good VPN as described above will let you watch the streaming services and content you pay for at home, from anywhere in the world.

How to watch Ryder Cup: live stream golf in the UK

UK-based golf fans can tune into all of the Ryder Cup action on Sky Sports, but be warned that each day of action concludes after midnight.

Live coverage of the 2021 Ryder Cup is available through the Sky Sports Ryder Cup channel from September 24-26, and it's as comprehensive as it gets, running from 12.45pm-12.30am BST for days 1 and 2, and from 4.45pm-1am on day 3.

Subscribers also get to watch on the move using the Sky Go app, which is available on nearly all modern phones, tablets, laptops, PCs and consoles.

For those without Sky, the best option is a Now Sky Sports monthly membership. But to go all out, check out our guide to today's best Sky TV packages and deals.

Not in the UK this weekend? To access your usual streaming service from outside the UK, you'll need to download a good VPN as detailed above.
