PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. — The 2025 Walker Cup is finally here.
The biennial competition between 10 of the best amateurs from the United States against their counterparts from Great Britain & Ireland kicks off Saturday morning at famed Cypress Point Club, ranked No. 1 on Golfweek’s Best list of Classic Courses in the U.S.
The full Saturday slate is set, with morning fourballs kicking off the competition and eight singles matches concluding play come Saturday afternoon. Eight of the top-10 players in the World Amateur Golf Ranking are in the field, seven of those representing the United States. The U.S. leads the all-time Walker Cup series, 39-9-1, and has won four straight competitions.

In the first match out, GB&I wins four of the last five holes to tally the first point, winning 3 and 1.
No. 1 amateur Jackson Koivun buried the 8 footer for birdie on 11 to give the U.S. a 1-up lead for the first time in the match. Tommy Morrison had a brilliant cut shot to the back pin, and it results in good for the Americans.
The underdogs have started well in foursomes. They lead in three of the four matches early on. At the St. Andrews Trophy last month, where GB&I beat Continental Europe, they won 7.5 of 8 total foursomes points.
GB&I had three birdies in three holes to go 2 up in the opening match, but the Americans have won holes 4 and 5 to tie the match.
In the first match off, Connor Graham hits the approach to within 10 feet and Tyler Weaver makes the birdie to go 1 up. Tommy Morrison’s approach went long for the U.S, and Jackson Koivun could only lag the putt from long of the green to 3 feet.
