General admission tickets for next year’s Ryder Cup at Adare Manor have sold out, with 34% snapped up by buyers in Ireland.

Organisers said they could have sold the allocation 12 times over, highlighting the huge global demand for golf’s biggest team event.

A priority sale for fans on the island of Ireland sold out in less than an hour in May, while supporters from 80 different countries ultimately secured tickets.

Richard Atkinson, the European Tour group’s Chief Ryder Cup Officer, said: “We always thought there would be huge global interest in the 2027 Ryder Cup, but the demand for tickets we received throughout the entire process has been nothing short of remarkable.

“We could have sold out our general admission tickets more than 12 times over, which is testament to the appeal of golf’s greatest team contest, as well as the passion of fans who want to be part of it.”

Fans successful in the ballot were notified over the past week, joining those who had already secured tickets during the Ireland priority sale in May.

More than 250,000 people are expected to attend the Ryder Cup from September 13 to 19 next year, with a daily capacity of 55,000.

Thousands of tickets for residents of Ireland will be available for Tuesday’s practice day as part of the ‘SuperValu Community Day’, courtesy of Musgrave. Full details of how to apply for tickets will be announced later this year.

The golfing bonanza is predicted to generate around €300 million for the Irish economy.
