Ryder Cup preview with Conor McKeon and Brian Keogh

Security concerns about President Donald Trump’s planned visit to the Ryder Cup are growing according to police.

But that’s not the only headache facing organisers of the biennial contest which is expected to attract 50,000 fans a day to Bethpage State Park in New York.

An inclement weather forecast for Thursday has forced the Ryder Cup Opening Ceremony to be moved to 4.0pm local time today.

Captains Keegan Bradley and Luke Donald were scheduled to announce their Friday morning’s foursomes pairings at the Opening Ceremony but they will now do so from undisclosed location tomorrow at 4.0pm local time.

Meanwhile, the BBC reported that the recent killing of American conservative activist Charlie Kirk has increased the risk of the Ryder Cup being targeted by someone wanting to “make a statement.”
