The postponed Ryder Cup golf tournament takes place next week at Whistling Straits in Haven, and while the event is sold out, tickets are available at a variety of prices on the secondary market.
Ticket prices are at their lowest levels since they went on sale in April of 2019. With the rise of the highly contagious delta variant of COVID-19, attendance has been spotty at large gatherings like Summerfest and some sporting events.
For the Ryder Cup, golfers from the U.S. and Europe face off in a team-style tournament Sept. 24 to 26 at Whistling Straits. Practice rounds begin on Tuesday, Sept. 21. The golf course is owned by Kohler Co.
As of Wednesday afternoon, the cheapest tickets for a general admission Grounds Pass for the first day of play Friday were $200 on StubHub. For Saturday, general admission tickets were $210, and on Sunday, $190. Similar prices were found on the SeatGeek ticket service.
Tickets also can be purchased through On Location, the official ticket exchange partner of the 2020 Ryder Cup.
More expensive ticket options include admission to either the International Pavilion or the 1927 Club.
The International Pavilion is a climate-controlled facility located on the grounds with an outdoor patio. On StubHub, those tickets were $250 for Friday.
The most expensive option, the 1927 Club, range from $4,400 to $5,300 depending on the day. These tickets get access to the course with all-inclusive hospitality at the 1927 Club, as well as breakfast, lunch, and an open bar.
Weekly passes are also available on StubHub starting at $645. Weekly passes receive admission to the practice days on Sept. 21 to 23, and match days Sept. 24 to 26.
A representative from Ticket King said that there are a lot of sellers right now and that the service does not expect prices to go up much in the next week.
Ticket sales surged in March of 2020 before the event was postponed to this September, according to data from TicketIQ, a secondary market that analyzes ticket market data.
