Golf is an individual sport. At most tournaments, a single player earns top accolades and bragging rights. That dynamic changes during the Ryder Cup.
Every two years, the Ryder Cup -- named after its founder, the late English entrepreneur and golf enthusiast Samuel Ryder -- features a team of 12 of the top European golfers going head-to-head against 12 of the best players from the United States in a three-day, match-play competition.
Delivering drama, boosting camaraderie and showcasing top-tier golf, the Ryder Cup has become one of the premier events on the sports calendar.
