The 2010 Ryder Cup
1st - 3rd October 2010
The Ryder Cup is one of the world's great sporting events. In 2008, following three consecutive European victories, Team USA finally claimed the Ryder Cup back in breathtaking fashion at Valhalla Golf Club in Kentucky. Without world number one Tiger Woods, many gave USA little hope, but less established players such as Boo Weekley and Anthony Kim lead them to victory. In 2010, Europe, under the captaincy of Colin Montgomerie, will be attempting to regain this famous trophy from the resurgent USA team.
