RYDER CUP '16: Facts and figures for the 41st edition (The Associated Press)

Event: 41st Ryder Cup matches.

Date: Sept. 30-Oct. 2.

The course: Hazeltine National, which opened in 1962, was designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr. and later enhanced by his son, Rees Jones. It has hosted the U.S. Open twice, the PGA Championship twice, the U.S. Women's Open twice, the U.S. Amateur, the U.S. Senior Open and the NCAA championship.

The routing: For the Ryder Cup, the front nine will be Nos. 1-4 and 14-18, while the back nine will be Nos. 10-13 and Nos. 5-9 to allow for better viewing on the back nine and the finish closer to the new 50,000-square-foot clubhouse.
