This week, the Ryder Cup should provoke emotions and give the drama

For beginners, the Ryder Cup is not something from which you drink coffee on your rented truck. In fact, 15 years ago, locals announced that classic golf classic is the largest sporting event ever in the country of Wales.

You will find the latest version of the Ryder Cup TV screen from Friday to Monday. Long Island will be challenged on a torture room called Bethpage Black. They played the United States open there in 2009, caught heavily, and there were often rumors that were ready for Turks. Lucas Glove did not win it. They survived.

To clarify this, this will not be the largest sporting event in the New York region. Mets Games on Thursday afternoon creates more stomach pain and fist pumps.

But it should not be rejected or received from yawning.

This event every year, alternating with the best golf players in the United States against the best in Europe, creates a lot of passion and you can find in a sport that heralds control of that.

Recently, the British golf player died Wallace tears on the camera after it was less than the qualifiers. “I will never give in to the Ryder Cup,” he cried.

Rorre McLeroi from Northern Ireland, one of the best players ever in this sport, has made a mistake for years of summoning the Ryder Cup “often exhibition.” I have apologized for that since then.

Sergio Garcia, a former masters champion, and an emotional captain of many of the past European teams, came out of a European championship immediately after he learned that he would not be in the Rider Cup this year. He said he needs to get away for a while.

Kejan Bradley was on the United States teams lost the 2012 and 2014 Cup, and he talked about the unnamed Rider Cup backpack and which was not known until 2012.

If you think the golf game and the big players are the live definition of a boring sporting (boring), then it is not with the Ryder Cup.

The event continues to infiltrate people. Mcilroy was right, not yet. By 2010, the United States began to lose the Rider Cup matches, and this suddenly made it important. American sports enthusiasts are like a little torment and drama before celebrating moments of victory. The loss is unacceptable. From 1959 to 1983, the United States won every Rider Cup. Then, in 1985, Europe won and held the cup for eight of the next 11 meetings.

Now, the game was.

The United States won in 2008, but this time, for the year 2010, the Europeans were ready. They even had a special cycle, clearly with one thing in mind. He was in Nioport and Wales, and he was called the club Celtic Manor and he was called the ten and twenty round.

They occupied a huge dinner before assembly, and by the time when they started, they sold the six -day package (three training rounds and three competing rounds) to 45,000 people at $ 660 each. That $ 29.7 million paid well for the Grand Party.

Large profits are not yet the driving force in the Rider Cup, but like everything else in sports, it is likely to change. This year’s Ryder Cup will be the most widespread in the United States

Bradley, the 13 -year -old man, will be the US commander. He played in two teams of the Rider Cup, both defeats, and lost the decisive match against Jimmy Donaldson in 2014 in Scotland. The bag is still emptying.

He is still one of the best golf players, and he is good enough to be a player in this year’s team, but he chose not to choose himself and will be a traditional non -play captain. It was also high enough in the classifications to be considered in a place in the American team that lost in Rome. He later said that when the American Captain Zack Johnson passed it, “He has broken my heart.”

Luke Donald from England, who played the role of golf in North Western, was well enough to be the first place in the PGA tour for 56 weeks and the first golf player to get the best lists in the money season in PGA and European tours in the same year, will be the European captain. He played on four Rider Cup teams, and all European victories. The captain was also in Rome.

Donald was a member of the 2010 team in Wales. The United States lost a point and Donald won three Europeans.

Celtic Manor was more than just a European victory. It was a victory in your face, a moment you remember in this game. He was more than the winner of all. The winner of letters was every night and brotherhood in the next year.

Preparation helps to understand all this.

The course of the twenty -one was not amazing as a classic European path. Many of that was made in the previous period. Why do Americans give the type of golf field that they are accustomed to-soft and grassy corridors and embroidered vegetables-when bond cycling usually lead to nuts. Then she started raining and seemed as if she would never stop. It became twenty thousand pools. It was very bad that the last day of the conclusion of playing individual matches was competing on Monday, the first for the Rider Cup. The US team was ready, with great slogans. However, she leaked.

Amid one of the heavy rains, American star Phil Michelson discovered a reporter who was walking on the sidelines. He turned, immersed and approached, looking forward to rain equipment for the correspondent and said: “Do you want to trade?”

The next day, the American team got an alternative rain equipment from the same gift store that the reporter bought.

Such nuances are the responsibility of the team’s leaders. The Europeans, whom the rainy claims remained sealed, led by Pro Colin Montgomerie for a long time, was a great player who never won and many feel the model of Bilsbury boy. The US captain was Cori Pavin, who did not win the United States Championship in 1995 only with his four famous wooden wood in No. 18, but was also brave Little Bruyne, a golf pride at the University of California in Los Angeles.

This match, which Europe eventually won, decreased to the final individual, which is associated with Monday. McDoilel Grimm from Northern Ireland, who won the United States Open in the United States in People Beach, is met by Montgomery against Hunter Mahan Pavin, Texas, who was qualified for the Rider Cup No. 2 behind Micolson.

McCdueel ranked 16th, where he photographed a 15 -foot slide for the birds that I left with two holes to play. After that, on an equal footing, Mahan had to win this hole, and the other to keep the United States alive – Mahan made his second shot, a chip, less than green. Wild euro fans went. Mahan walked to McDoilel, who settled the ball in his easy and shining lands, and shook his hand in a privilege.

Europe had won, 14 As -131, and champagne began to flow.

Celtic Manor was on a hill, with a long balcony overlooking the eighteenth green color. Within minutes, European players were there, shook huge bottles of champagne and sprayed throughout each other and thousands of fans below. It continued and continues. It was a celebration after Super Bowl-Inhiladelphia, with curved traffic lights; Celebration of a celebration after the son in NBA-Title -at Staples, from which the burning police cars. She produced photos that dominated every major European press and television broadcast for the next few days.

Ultimately, the US team was mixed in an interview room. There was no smile to find. All of them were there, unit to the end, sitting on a long table. Quickly, a question went to Mahan about a shot shot. He looked like a man who just saw his dog hit a car. Before he was able to bring a lot of answer, two of the three old warriors ran on the team. Mickelson and Jim Furyk jumped to answer, mainly, that any of the people who ask questions can have any idea of ​​pressure in the case of this Ryder Cup like this. Of course, none of the people who ask questions did not aspire to this pressure.

The Woods tiger remained silent.

In a press gathering before the event, he asked a question from a member of the British press. If there was a moment when the tone of hostility was placed for this event, then it was there.

The reporter: “You haven’t won anymore, you don’t win ordinary tournaments. Where is the Rider Cup on your work schedule, and now that you have become a normal golf player?”

Woods, the regular golf player: “I hope you will spend a good week.”

Captain comparisons are enjoyable, but perhaps not meaningful. Bradley won the desire, PGA 2011, and ranked No. 7 in the world. Rider Cup was 4-3-0. Donald never won the specialty, but it was No. 1. Rider’s Cup was 10-4-1. The Ryder Cup captain was in 2023 in Paris. He was never in the Rider Al -Khasir Cup, as a player or captain. Bradley’s Ryder score is 0-2.

The only return to play from 2010 in Celtic Manor – Donald was also on the team – is Mcilroy, who called this all “exhibition”. It was before he stood on a balcony in Wales, 15 years ago, looked below for a mass of packed golf fans, and begged to spray champagne.

At that moment, the Ryder Cup became a huge deal for Mcilroy. It follows the rest of the sport world now.
