Hotly contested every two years, the Ryder Cup pits the teams of two golfing giants - Europe and the United States - in an epic collective head-to-head in an individual sport.

This beautifully illustrated book tells the story of this immense competition; pioneers in 1927, when Great Britain was opposed to the United States for a trophy offered by the seed merchant, the so-called Samuel Ryder who gave his name to the competition, to post-war American domination by the USA , then to the introduction of European golfers into the British and Irish team from the end of 1970, until the titanic struggles of modern times.
