Ryder Cup (Named after the English businessman Samuel Ryder who donated the trophy.)

The Ryder Cup has become one of the world’s greatest sporting events. It’s Team USA vs. Team Europe, as 24 of the world’s best golfers play for pride, patriotism, and the most coveted cup in golf. The competition is every two years with the venue alternating between courses in the US and Europe. A three-day competition that includes head to head match play, the team that gets to 14 out of 28 available points will take home the Ryder Cup. Don’t miss a moment, September 30 to October 2, only on Golf Channel and NBC, as Team USA fights to reclaim the cup at home. Golf Channel will be there from the beginning, live from Hazeltine National Golf Club, in Chaska, Minnesota.
