According to a press release, they sold out in under an hour today.Practice day and weekly tickets were also available in the exclusive Irish window, which sold out in under four hours.More than 150,000 people from across the island of Ireland had pre-registered for early access, with a limited number of tickets available on a first-come, first-served basis from 11 am local time.

"We are aware of a handful of individual user issues but there are no widespread technical problems with today's sale," a spokesperson for Ryder Cup Europe said, but some in the queue received messages stating, "We are experiencing technical difficulties. We are currently working hard to fix the issues. Thank you for your patience."Those unsuccessful in this window will have a second opportunity to purchase general admission daily tickets in the full public ballot, which opens to fans from around the world on Wednesday, June 3.
