Who are the captains?
The 2023 Ryder Cup will feature two new captains.

How will the Ryder Cup teams be selected?
Europe’s 12-player squad will be selected differently this year, with Donald afforded six captain’s picks, three more than his predecessor had for Whistling Straits. The six automatic selections will be comprised of three golfers apiece from the European and World points lists.
The US, meanwhile, retains the same process: six qualifiers from the Ryder Cup points list and then six players of Johnson’s choosing.
