Matthew Jordan and Romain Langasque have been selected as the final representatives of Great Britain & Ireland and Continental Europe’s Team Cup sides ahead of the match play contest at Abu Dhabi Golf Resort from January 10-12, 2025.

Selected by European Ryder Cup Captain Luke Donald in consultation with Team Cup Playing Captains Justin Rose and Francesco Molinari, Jordan and Langasque round out the ten-man sides who will compete across three days in the United Arab Emirates.

Jordan made his DP World Tour debut in 2018 in the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship before earning full playing rights for golf’s Global Tour a year later after securing promotion from the Challenge Tour.

The 28-year-old enjoyed his best year to date in 2024, finishing 41st on the season-long Race to Dubai Rankings thanks to six top ten finishes which included a tied tenth place in The 152nd Open Championship at Royal Troon.

The Englishman got the new Race to Dubai season off to the perfect start by finishing tied second in the Nedbank Golf Challenge last week.

Jordan is no stranger to team golf having represented GB&I at the 2017 Walker Cup, and represented Europe in the Bonallack Trophy in 2018.

Langasque, who matched Jordan’s second place finish in last week’s Nedbank Golf Challenge, impressed as an amateur, winning the prestigious Amateur Championship in 2015 at Carnoustie Golf Links to earn entries into both The 144th Open Championship and the 2016 Masters Tournament, making the 36-hole cut in both instances.

The 29-year-old turned professional immediately after his appearance at Augusta, gaining promotion to the DP World Tour at the first opportunity after finishing ninth in the Challenge Tour’s season-long Rankings in 2017.

The Frenchman claimed a breakthrough victory on the DP World Tour in 2020 in the ISPS HANDA Wales Open, and last year recorded two second place finishes and four other top tens to end the 2024 season 22nd on the Race to Dubai Rankings.

Donald, who will Captain Europe for a second time at Bethpage next September, said: “Matthew and Romain are two fantastic talents who will add a lot to their respective sides at next year’s Team Cup.

“The teams have come together really nicely and we are all looking forward to seeing how individual players react in what promises to be a very competitive environment.”

Molinari, who will lead his Continental European side’s defence of the Team Cup in January, said: “Romain was an outstanding amateur and continues to improve year-on-year as a professional. His last two seasons have been his best to date on the DP World Tour, and he also knows what it takes to win, so it will be very interesting to see how he adapts to being part of the team next month.”

Rose, who is Captaining Great Britain & Ireland for the first time, said: “Matthew has really impressed me over the last couple of years, so I’m very excited to welcome him to the Great Britain & Ireland side. He’s had back-to-back top ten finishes at The Open Championship in the last two years which shows he can perform under pressure, and having also achieved a great deal in team competitions as an amateur, he’s a great addition to the team.”

Rose and Molinari will lead Great Britain & Ireland and Continental Europe respectively during the three days, with teams competing in one session of fourballs on the Friday, two sessions of foursomes on the Saturday and one session of singles on Sunday. All 20 players will take part in every session, competing for 25 points.

Molinari Captained the Continental European side to a 14½ - 10½ victory in 2023, with six players going on to represent Europe at the Ryder Cup at Marco Simone later that year.
