U.S. Ryder Cup captain Jim Furyk emphasizes the need for significant changes to revitalize the American team ahead of the 2025 Ryder Cup at Adare Manor, Limerick, Ireland. Furyk, leading the team for the second time, aims to end a 34-year winless streak on European soil, with the last victory occurring in 1993 at The Belfry.

Furyk expressed dissatisfaction with the team's recent performances, stating, "We're not real happy with the last two results, so, yes, change will be made." Key changes include:

• A new points system for player qualification
• The introduction of a new analytics team

Despite not captaining since the 2018 Ryder Cup, where the U.S. fell 17.5 to 10.5 at Le Golf National, Furyk has remained active in leadership roles, including a victorious stint as captain for the 2024 Presidents Cup.

The U.S. team has shown strength in Sunday singles matches, winning against the International team and Europeans in recent events. However, they struggle in team formats like foursomes, having lost the last three Ryder Cups in Europe by an average of six points.

Furyk acknowledges the team's challenges, stating, "We understand that. Not something I'm very happy with. I plan on making some changes." He commits to better preparing the team for matches, emphasizing the need for strong pairings and mental readiness.

As the underdogs, Furyk is focused on assembling a team that thrives in the intense atmosphere of the Ryder Cup, aiming to showcase their talent and finally secure a victory on European soil.
