A recent report from The Telegraph revealed that U.S. players might receive $400,000 for the upcoming 2025 Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black in New York, although it remains uncertain whether this amount will be allocated to players or charities, as they currently receive $200,000 for charitable causes.

In light of the report, Rory McIlroy expressed his willingness to pay to play in the Ryder Cup, a sentiment that was echoed by Scottie Scheffler, who criticized the notion of players having to pay to participate in such a lucrative tournament.

During the Hero World Challenge in Nassau, Bahamas, Scheffler voiced his fatigue over ongoing discussions regarding player compensation and purse sizes in professional golf.

Scheffler also shared that he and Tiger Woods had discussed their frustrations about not being compensated for participating in the Ryder Cup, with Woods labeling the situation as 'BS'.

Woods expressed his hope that Ryder Cup players would receive a larger sum of money, suggesting that any increase should be directed towards charitable efforts.

Justin Thomas acknowledged the complexities surrounding the compensation issue but emphasized the deep passion players have for the Ryder Cup, indicating that they would likely participate regardless of financial incentives.
