Synopsis

"Nothing in golf, maybe in all of sports, compares to the pressure exerted over the three days of the Ryder Cup. Grown men cry. Strong men become weak-kneed. Choking becomes an occupational hazard for which there is little or no relief in the rule book of life. Despite this, every American and European golfer wants to make the Ryder Cup team, and every golf fan wants to watch it. -- From the Introduction "It was a big thrill when I got the invitation, and I hastily cabled back my acceptance." -- Henry Cotton, 1927 "The atmosphere is something I cannot explain. We could play one hundred holes and we would not be tired because the spectators would carry us in their arms." -- Ignacio Garrido, 1997
