The players in the USA Ryder Cup team for 2023 were Scottie Scheffler, Wyndham Clark, Patrick Cantlay, Brian Harman, Max Homa, Xander Schauffele, Sam Burns, Rickie Fowler, Brooks Koepka, Collin Morikawa, Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas.
There is a cut after 36 holes. The top 70 players (including ties) make the cut. Any player in 71st place or worse is cut from the tournament and does not compete in the final 36 holes.
