It\u2019s that time of year again \u2013 that time of year where the world\u2019s best golfers team up for a good old-fashioned international rivalry. It\u2019s the Ryder Cup, and this year\u2019s edition is going to be as hotly contested as ever before.<\/p>\n

Team Europe will once again battle Team USA in this bi-yearly extravaganza, with the victors securing themselves a spot in the history books. A selection of the best and brightest golfers on the planet are soon to play the Marco Simone Golf & Country Club\u2019s par 71 course, where the rough is deep and the excitement is mounting.<\/p>\n

The Ryder Cup was first established in 1927, but until 1979 Team USA played against a team under the banner of Great Britain or Great Britain and Republic of Ireland. In the modern era of the competition, since that first Team USA v Team Europe face-off in West Virginia in 1979, both teams have had memorable victories, crushing defeats and moments that will never be forgotten.<\/p>\n

RadioTimes.com<\/a> brings you all the details about who has won the Ryder Cup most in history.<\/p>\n

How many times have Europe won the Ryder Cup?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

TEAM EUROPE RYDER CUP WINS \u2013 11<\/strong><\/p>\n

Team Europe have won 11 of the 21 Ryder Cups since 1979, when the Great Britain and Republic of Ireland team expanded to include its continental neighbours. Additionally, they retained the Ryder Cup after the 1989 edition ended in a draw, as they had won the previous Ryder Cup in 1987.<\/p>\n

The European team has had a great deal of success when home advantage has been on their side. They have won seven of the ten Ryder Cups played in Europe since 1979, drawing once and losing twice. Both of those defeats came in England, first at Walton Heath in 1981 and then at the Belfry in 1993.<\/p>\n

Every time Europe has hosted the Ryder Cup outside of England, Team Europe have lifted the trophy. The iconic Seve Ballesteros captained Europe to victory in his home nation of Spain in 1997, while Team Europe have also been victorious in the Republic of Ireland, Wales, Scotland and France in this century.<\/p>\n

Team Europe routed their opposition in the last home Ryder Cup, winning 17\u00bd-10\u00bd in France in 2018. They have not lost in Europe since 1993, which means the new European contingent are hoping to turn six consecutive home wins into seven in Rome.<\/p>\n

Europe\u2019s biggest victory was in 2004, where they beat Team USA 18\u00bd-9\u00bd on American soil. Their biggest win on home soil was that victory in France five years ago.<\/p>\n

The equivalent women\u2019s event, the Solheim Cup<\/a>, has been won by Europe seven times since the competition\u2019s inception in 1990, with this year\u2019s event ending in a 14-14 draw. Europe retained the trophy after winning the previous Solheim Cup in 2021.<\/p>

How many times have USA won the Ryder Cup?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

TEAM USA RYDER CUP WINS \u2013 9<\/strong><\/p>\n

Team USA have won nine of the 21 Ryder Cups since 1979, losing 11 and drawing the event in 1989. Going back to 1927, Team USA have won 27 Ryder Cups, while their opposition has won 14.<\/p>\n

Home advantage has been important for the US team too. Team USA have won seven of the 11 Ryder Cups played in the USA since 1979, while they have only won the Ryder Cup twice in Europe in ten attempts during that time.<\/p>\n

Team USA stormed past their opposition in the last Ryder Cup, winning 19-9 at The American Club in Kohler, Wisconsin in 2021. This is the record margin of victory in the modern era of the Ryder Cup.<\/p>\n

The Americans\u2019 biggest win over Team Europe on European soil came in 1981, when they won 18\u00bd-9\u00bd. It was the USA\u2019s 22nd consecutive Ryder Cup victory.<\/p>\n

The equivalent women\u2019s event, the Solheim Cup, has been won by Team USA 10 times since beginning in 1990, though they have not won the event since 2017.<\/p>\n
