About this book

Kiawah Island, 1991. Twenty-four golfers have competed for three days in the ‘War on the Shore’, and it’s all come down to one six-foot putt. If Langer sinks it for par, the Cup is Europe’s. But he misses. As the ball glances past the lip of the hole, Langer drops his knees and shouts in anguish. The Ryder Cup is rarely without drama.

This is the story of the Ryder Cup, as told by newspaper articles from the first ever tournament in 1927 right up until 2023.

Relive how the US took on Britain and Ireland – and from 1979, all of Europe – through the words of the reporters scribbling at the side of the course. Your travels back in time will take you from Brookline to the Belfry as you see golfing greats fight it out for the Cup. The book includes iconic moments like The Concession in 1969, the flaring tempers between Ballesteros and Azinger, and the Miracle at Medinah.
