So Team Europe was beaten by Team USA this weekend at Louisville, Kentucky. But what about the Ryder Cup, how and where did it start? I thought it might make an interesting listen, and it did.
The Ryder Cup is a golf trophy, donated by Samuel Ryder, which is awarded biennially in an event called the "Ryder Cup Matches" between teams from Europe and the United States. The matches are jointly administered by the PGA of America and the PGA European Tour, and alternate between sites in the United States and Europe.
