Description

Flown on the sixteenth hole at Bethpage Black during Friday’s opening round of the 2025 Ryder Cup, this flag was in place on September 26 as the United States and Europe began their three-day battle for international golf’s most prestigious team title.

The flag features official 2025 Ryder Cup branding, including the tournament logo and a large numeral “16” denoting its on-course placement. Following the conclusion of Friday play, a TRuEST™ authenticator witnessed the flag’s removal on-site, marking and verifying it as part of the course-used set for the day.

The flag was in place for both sessions of play that day, remaining on the hole throughout the morning and afternoon rounds. All Ryder Cup flags are collected following the conclusion of the tournament on Sunday, September 28. While every effort is made to secure each flag, there is a chance that certain items may not be retrieved due to event operations. In such cases, the item will not be made available for release.

Disclaimer: This item features a Gold OVD, as a TRuEST™ authenticator was on-site to witness the flag’s removal, verifying its direct use during the 2025 Ryder Cup. Condition may vary slightly from photos, with unique marks that highlight the item’s authenticity as a field-used flag. The cover image has been edited for a white background; all additional photos show the actual flag itself.

Bethpage Black, located in Farmingdale, New York, is one of the most challenging public courses in the United States and a frequent host of major championships. In 2025, it becomes the first New York venue to host the Ryder Cup, bringing one of golf’s most intense rivalries to a famously demanding layout.

This item is part of an official collaboration between The Realest™ and the PGA of America, making authenticated tournament-used Ryder Cup artifacts available directly to fans. Every piece has been verified in coordination with on-site Ryder Cup operations staff and TRuEST™ authenticators.

Net proceeds will directly support PGA HOPE's mission of helping Veterans thrive through the game of golf.

TRuEST™ Authentication

The Realest™ empowers partners in sports, music, and film with the industry's most advanced authentication and marketplace technology.

As forgeries grow more sophisticated with deepfakes and other emerging threats, protecting the integrity of physical memorabilia has never been more critical. Traditional authentication standards carry significant risk, but The Realest™ takes a proactive approach, partnering directly with teams, artists, and studios to source items at the origin.

Our multi-layered, witness-based authentication process (TRuEST™) sets a new industry standard and comes backed by a money-back guarantee. TRuEST™ replaces old-school certificates of authenticity with immutable provenance stored on the blockchain, clearly showing population data, creation dates, and key item details. This information cannot be altered, backdated, or hacked and remains accessible at all times. Each item is uniquely fingerprinted using our patent-pending covert markings and tamper-resistant OVD holograms.

These security measures ensure The Realest™ can verify authenticity with absolute certainty, now and in the future, while detecting any attempts to alter or counterfeit items using undisclosed, cutting-edge security methods.
