Inclement weather has caused a change in this week’s Ryder Cup schedule.
The opening ceremony now will take place at 4 p.m. Wednesday. It originally was scheduled for 4 p.m. Thursday.
Fans with Ryder Cup+ tickets for Thursday can attend on both Wednesday and Thursday.
U.S. captain Keegan Bradley and European captain Luke Donald still will announce Friday morning’s pairings at 4 p.m. Thursday.
