Europeโs 2025 Ryder Cup win had everything that has made the event one of the most compelling in sport. Luke Donaldโs team produced two days of exceptional golf and the outcome looked all over bar the shouting โ of which there was plenty from the home fans โ until a remarkable USA fightback took it down to the wire.
This volume picks up the Ryder Cup story at the turning point in its history, in 1979, when Europe succeeded Great Britain & Ireland as the USAโs opponents in what had become a biennial mismatch. And how the balance of power has shifted since.
From Seve Ballesteros and Bernhard Langer in 1985 to Rory McIlroy and Tommy Fleetwood 40 years later, Europeโs heroes and heroics are all recorded here, as is the transformation from sporting rivalry to gladiatorial battle that ensures the whole world will be watching when hostilities are renewed at Adare Manor in 2027.ย ย ย ย
