Now, it’s onto New York and here is everything you need to know regarding start times, formats, teams and more.

Where is it being played?
After two instalments in Europe, the Aramco Team Series heads to New York and the Glen Oaks Club.
Located in the village of Old Westbury, Glen Oaks was founded in 1924 and hosted the opening event of the FedEx Cup Playoffs in 2017 - The Northern Trust.
What is the 2021 Aramco Team Series format?
The first event of its kind on any professional tour, the Aramco Team Series sees pros and amateurs compete together with money and titles on the line.
Each team consists of three professionals and one amateur, with captains choosing their first player via an NFL-style draft. Completing the line-ups, the final pro team-mate and competing amateur are randomly assigned.
It takes place over three rounds, with two of four scores on each hole counting towards the team score, while the pros also vie for the individual trophy.
Not only is there a $1 million prize fund on offer, but the result also counts towards the world rankings, as well as the Solheim Cup and Race to Costa del Sol rankings.
Who is playing?
Already, some of the best players in the world have featured in this series in 2021, and the New York stop is no exception. World No. 1 Nelly Korda headlines a stellar field that is packed with major winners and Solheim Cuppers.
