Revised and updated, this in-depth look recounts The Ryder Cup's
rich history and venerated place in sports, its champions and its
characters, and its status as golf's greatest grudge match. From
its humble origins in 1927 to its place today as golf's most
gentlemanly battle—and a multi-million-dollar international
sports event—The Ryder Cup has cemented its place in both its
legacy and lore. Golf journalist Tom Clavin and golf commentator
Bob Bubka have now made current their seminal work on the
tournament, exploring the history and the rivalries, the
extraordinary triumphs and devastating defeats, and the U.S. and
the European contingents who have made this contest so remarkable.
The names are legendary for any fan of golf: Palmer, Nicklaus,
Jacklin, Floyd, Mickelson, Ballesteros, Faldo, Hogan, Nelson,
Watson, Strange, Sarazen, Crenshaw, Woods, Montgomerie...the list
goes on, as do their pitched battles for dominance and
accomplishments on the greens. This up-close and personal look at
The Ryder Cup is a must-read for golf fans, especially in
preparation for the landmark 40th Anniversary tournament in
Gleneagles, Scotland, in 2014.
