The illustrated history of golf's most keenly contested team game, the Ryder Cup.
The Ryder Cup tells the complete story of one of the world's most prestigious sporting contests. Fiercely fought every two years, it uniquely pits teams from two golfing giants – Europe and the USA – against each other in a sport that is more usually associated with individual play.

This beautifully illustrated book tells the full story of this great tournament, from its humble beginnings in 1927, to the introduction of European golfers into what had been the GB and Ireland team in the late 1970s, to the titanic, see-saw struggles of the modern day. It looks at each of the Ryder Cups, and features the great players, pairings, captains and courses along the way. A book for sports fans everywhere, The Ryder Cup is the definitive chronicling of the history and prestige of this global sporting event.

Nick Callow is a highly respected sports journalist who has reported on virtually every major sport around the world over more than 20 years. As well as writing for almost every major British newspaper, he is now joint Managing Director and Editorial Director of the world-renowned Hayters Teamwork Sports Agency, based in Tottenham, London.
