What a statement! Patrick Reed makes no secret of it: His comeback to the PGA Tour in 2027 has only one goal – straight back into the US Ryder Cup Team. For "Captain America," this isn't just a wish, but the clear #1 priority.
After a year on the DP World Tour in 2026 and his LIV Golf hiatus, which came with a suspension, the path for Reed back to the big stage is paved. He has already secured his PGA Tour card via the Race to Dubai rankings by finishing among the top 10 players without existing PGA Tour membership. Things are going well for him, after he was still in third place at the season finale. Now he wants to win again and fight his way into the world's top 10.
Ryder Cup: A Thorn in the Europeans' Side
The plan is ambitious, but Reed is known for his fighting spirit. To be on the starting line in Adare Manor, Ireland, in 2027, he must impress Captain Jim Furyk – either through automatic qualification or as a Captain's Pick. His reputation as "Captain America" and his often fiery performances speak for him. He himself says he wants to be "a thorn in the Europeans' side" again. What an attitude!
The Road Back to the Top
The 2026 DP World Tour season was really strong for Reed and gave him the necessary momentum. He has shown that he is still an absolute top golfer and ready to claim victory. The focus is now clearly on 2027 and the big goal, the Ryder Cup. This will be a sensational season for him!
