Hi All,
Just like to say its great to see the Ryder Cup continuing on year after year, hats off to the organisers
I dont know if anybody realises yet, I havent seen any mention of it - but this is the 10TH ANNIVERSARY of the running of the Ryder Cup on WGT. Surely thats worth a plug lol.
I know this, memory still holding up lolol - because I was part of Team World which lost that very first Ryder Cup in 2009 by a score of 15 - 13. The score was 14 - 13 with one match to play, which the Americans won 2 and 1. Awesome tournament - talk about shredded nerves !!
I partnered an Australian in the doubles and we actually won a point for Team World - 1 up. I got to bed at 0300 hrs, Adelaide, Australia time, but the adrenalin was such that I couldnt get to sleep lolol.
Great people who put that first tournament together all those years ago, but I dont know if there is anybody still playing from that 2009 period. I still am, but not a lot - life just gets in the way as it always has.
All the best to both teams and enjoy !!
Cheers
Doug
