The Golf Channel created this short film about the 5 European golfers who changed the course of the Ryder Cup at a time when it may have disappeared. It was great to release it this week and it really hyped me up about this year’s Ryder Cup. Check it out before things kick off tomorrow.

Ryder Cup Ass Beatin'
Europe won the 35th Ryder Cup by a record setting margin of 18 1/2-9 1/2 over the United States. You can try to blame Tiger, Phil, Captain Sutton or any of the other American, but the Europeans simply played better and deserved to win the cup.
Ryder Cup Photos
Photos taken during the Wednesday practice round of the 35th Ryder Cup have been posted. Thursday too.
35th Ryder Cup Opening Ceremonies
Dad and I were in attendance at the greatest event I’ve ever been a part of. The Ryder Cup is the Super Bowl of golf, with the difference being the number of times it is held in the United States. The Ryder Cup Matches are held every two years. They are held in the United States every four years. During a golfer’s lifetime, the matches are held on home soil about 20 times. A few of those are during the years when we are too young to appreciate them or too old to attend. So figure about 12 to 14 chances of attending the event.
Ryder Cup Practice Rounds
Watching professional golfers is enjoyable for anyone who enjoys the game of golf. Being a witness to their play in person is even better. Dad and I enjoyed watching the United States and European Ryder Cup teams practice, but not as much as when we’ve seen them compete in the Buick Open several teams.
2004 Ryder Cup Practice Rounds
Is Phil Mickelson Too Good?
Phil Mickelson didn’t even practice on the course yesterday for the Ryder Cup. He must think he’s too good.
Ryder Cup 2004
Tomorrow and Thursday I’m off to watch practice rounds for the Ryder Cup at Oakland Hills Country Club in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity and I get to spend two days watching the top players from the United States and Europe.
