The men’s competition is up first at Le Golf National, which also hosted the 2018 Ryder Cup. They start Thursday, Aug. 1 and the top three finishers will be on the podium getting their medals on Sunday, Aug. 4.

Then it’s the women’s turn, and they start Wednesday, Aug. 7 and conclude on Saturday, Aug. 10.
