This was one of the greatest. Olazabal was different class. I sat in a packed boozer watching this and at this moment, it went silent. Some fellas bowed their heads, some welled up, a few even loosened the washers. Something very special about the Ryder Cup. Come on Europe.
This Ryder won’t ever be beaten. My daughter was 3 days old and laying in her cot beside me whilst I watched and tried to contain myself. Poulter inspired that team along with Olly to grab the win for Seve. Some of the finest golf and team spirit I have ever witnessed. The Ryder cup is special. RIP Seve.
I must have seen this interview hundreds of times since that day and my eyes always fill up when Olly remembers Seve, such emotion in that moment thinking about his friend and what the Ryder Cup meant to him. Both it and the Solheim Cup are such special competitions. Come on Europe!
If somebody is not moved with these words must have a heart of stone or not heart at all. Sometimes people in Spain don't realize how BIG was Seve. Before winning at football, basketball, cycling, tennis, etc. Seve was the best known spanish athlete during the 80's and our best ambassador in the world of sports. Thanks for the upload.
Seve & Olly - that's an unbeatable spirit : Seve best natural talent ever & Olly was his apprentice. Bound to win, even from the jaws of defeat. Amazing
What an incredible event, incredible comeback incredible triumph. I swear Seve was there in spirit every single step of the way. What a way to remember and honour Seve. Even in death he inspires.
Poulter… one of the greatest Ryder Cup Players of the modern era. Now nothing more than a sellout. The spirit of Seve was there that day. He helped the boys to victory.
I remember watching this interview with my mum after the emotional end to the tournament and we both looked at each other, smiled, started to cry ever so slightly and say 'Wow'. The emotions in this interview are overwhelming. Seve would be proud!!!!!
Thanks for uploading. Grew up watching José & Seve being that remarkable 'Spanish pair', part of 'Team Europe' that you knew could always be relied upon. You believe José 100% when he says this is #1 on his list of achievements. The Ryder Cup meant so much to Seve, and José did him and Europe proud. Eclipses (& buries) the events of 1999 by so much. Thank you José, and RIP Seve.
No soy un gran aficionado al golf... pero es el evento deportivo más emocionante que recuerdo haber visto, y también he llorado como si Seve hubiera sido mi amigo. Ver estas demostraciones de superación y humanidad me hacen seguir creyendo en el corazón de los hombres, inolvidable.
I'm not a big fan of golf ... but it is the most exciting sporting event I remember seeing, and I cried like Seve would have been my friend. View overcoming these demonstrations and humanity keeps me believing in the hearts of men, unforgettable.
They earn millions, they live amazing lifestyles, but in the end they're just sportsmen, and playing in a team does things to people. God Bless, Seve - we miss you, but the boys did you proud.
I just love the answer , but more importantly the amount of time it took him to answer "You have won master championships , where does this rank in your achievements ?"
Just my opinion, but Jose Maria is the greatest gentleman of our generation. I mean, how can you not absolutely just love this guy… I don’t care what country he’s from… or you’re from… To me he’s one of the most absolutely lovable and greatest dudes to ever play on tour.
Simply an incredible performance by a European team who refused to believe it was over, just struck the ball, played the game shot by shot and watched the US team dissipate in front of their eyes. An unforgettable performance that I will never forget.
Awsome !!!!! Just Awsome, just shows what love can do. WE MISS YOU SEVE ! This was for him for sure !!!! You will never see anything like this appart from in this great game of Golf. What an amazing performance from Europe. WE are number 1 !!
Will never forget it! I heard so many ppl after saying that, even tho they've no interest in golf, they were glued to it! Suppose it wasn't dissimilar to Darren Clarkes emotions in the K Club 6 years earlier after he lost Heather, his first wife, to cancer. They both lost ppl who were very close to their hearts before the Ryder Cup. RIP Seve. Ur sadly missed by every1 in the golfing world.
I thought the exact same thing. Many people would likely roll their eyes at that response "yeah right" but I certainly believe it. It certainly felt like a "my life is complete" moment. Pure brilliance today.
Golf is more than just a game, it is a passion and something that a lot of people put their lives in. and to se the emotions from Olazábal, is something i will never forget in my whole life! thank you team europe for the sickest round of golf ever played, thank you for making history! Rest in peace Seve!
This goes out to Jose Maria Olazabal and The entire team. It is the best game of golf I've ever seen, and you earned this victory. Seve must be up in heaven, looking down, and saying to his mates up there "See? I told you Jose's team would win it."
This was amazing event. So blessed to have watched it. My wife who doesn’t watch golf was going crazy along with me for Europe. We were so far behind but we still came through
the Ryder Cup unique... It's the 1 time where all of Europe leaves its in house "Bitchy Fighting" and "Political Backstabbing" to one side... and you feel like for just 4 days you really are part of something Special... and whether you win or lose, your all in it together.. least that's how I feel..
I remember following the final round on poor internet signal, on 240p streaming with a few seconds lag I'm sure. How many points were they behind? Was it 10 I remember? I was like: "No way, 10 points out of 12?". And then, they worked the magic: Rose, Poults, Sergio, Donald, Kaymer, and what about Manassero containing, cancelling Woods!? Like a dejavu of CONSTANTINO ROCCA in 1997 ! When Kaymer sank his putt for the last winning point I burst in tears, shouting, out of my room bouncing in sheer joy like I'd witnessed a miracle. I still CANNOT believe that day. What would have Seve said about this?!
I have to say i thought it would be too much for the players to deliver for Ollie, given how much it meant. Thankfully they delivered. IJP being the talisman. RIP Seve, you will always be an inspisation.
Bravo Jose. I was glued to the screen for hours. Waay better than Brookeline. This was on USA home soil on a course set up to favour the Americans. Jose chokes up and the USA choked.
sadly its what we have come to expect from the americans. a country whose biggest contribution to the game in recent years is the annoying shouts of GET IN THE HOLE
Why do they allow comments when there are so many disrespectful ones. There must be something wrong with some people. Malvin u should be banned from you tube with that comment. Get help man

One of the greatest sporting moments EVER.
Olazabal you are a hero . Seve shines on .
This Ryder won’t ever be beaten. My daughter was 3 days old and laying in her cot beside me whilst I watched and tried to contain myself. Poulter inspired that team along with Olly to grab the win for Seve. Some of the finest golf and team spirit I have ever witnessed.
The Ryder cup is special.
RIP Seve.
This is so awesome, wow. Thank you for sharing, James. I admit I'm a bit verklempt! :)
Jose you are a true man dedicating your win to your best friend seve .
A man who lost his best friend finds the strength, through that loss, to go on and lead Europe to victory. What a legend Jose is. Seve lives ON!
Seve's spirit in European golf lives on always
Missed to this day 😢
I must have seen this interview hundreds of times since that day and my eyes always fill up when Olly remembers Seve, such emotion in that moment thinking about his friend and what the Ryder Cup meant to him. Both it and the Solheim Cup are such special competitions. Come on Europe!
"I had a few thoughts for my friend Seve, and this one's for him"
If somebody is not moved with these words must have a heart of stone or not heart at all.
Sometimes people in Spain don't realize how BIG was Seve. Before winning at football, basketball, cycling, tennis, etc. Seve was the best known spanish athlete during the 80's and our best ambassador in the world of sports.
Thanks for the upload.
Never again will this be beaten.....Golf History made that day ladies & Gentleman, The hand of Seve with a smirk on his face . Go Europe!!
One of the greatest interviews in sport .
My favourite golfer. What a great guy, a gentleman on and off the course.
Seve & Olly - that's an unbeatable spirit : Seve best natural talent ever & Olly was his apprentice. Bound to win, even from the jaws of defeat. Amazing
What an incredible event, incredible comeback incredible triumph. I swear Seve was there in spirit every single step of the way. What a way to remember and honour Seve. Even in death he inspires.
That would bring a tear to a glass eye.
Ps. I have no wish to ever interact with any of the 11 who "dislike" this clip.
Poulter… one of the greatest Ryder Cup Players of the modern era. Now nothing more than a sellout. The spirit of Seve was there that day. He helped the boys to victory.
Seve is an absolute legend

Will never forget this Ryder Cup.... just amazing. Seve played his part in that win.

Amazing sport; amazing captain, amazing team...... AMAZING SEVE!!!!! MISS U!!!
What a man, his partnership with Seve, was stuff of legends as a child.
I'm not a big fan of golf ... but it is the most exciting sporting event I remember seeing, and I cried like Seve would have been my friend. View overcoming these demonstrations and humanity keeps me believing in the hearts of men, unforgettable.

Lets go Europe its time again to pull together and do it for Seve
Olazabal genius seve loved you so much ❤
Seve’s thumb was on the scales giving the Europeans the preponderance. This may well have been the greatest Ryder Cup.
I just love the answer , but more importantly the amount of time it took him to answer "You have won master championships , where does this rank in your achievements ?"
Numero uno
Just my opinion, but Jose Maria is the greatest gentleman of our generation. I mean, how can you not absolutely just love this guy… I don’t care what country he’s from… or you’re from… To me he’s one of the most absolutely lovable and greatest dudes to ever play on tour.

Never fails to bring tears to my eyes - every single time! The Ryder Cup and Seve are synonymous with that european spirit
Thanks for the upload so quick. Amazing day. Amazing team. Amazing captain. Amazing 2012 so far!!
“I’ll give you a moment.” ….. proceeds to ask him another question right away 😂
"Number one."
I love how much The Ryder Cup means to European golfers.
Awsome !!!!! Just Awsome, just shows what love can do. WE MISS YOU SEVE ! This was for him for sure !!!! You will never see anything like this appart from in this great game of Golf.
What an amazing performance from Europe. WE are number 1 !!
...this one is for ever, is for him....
Will never forget it! I heard so many ppl after saying that, even tho they've no interest in golf, they were glued to it! Suppose it wasn't dissimilar to Darren Clarkes emotions in the K Club 6 years earlier after he lost Heather, his first wife, to cancer.

Seve……. An absolute titan in the game of golf!!!
I thought the exact same thing. Many people would likely roll their eyes at that response "yeah right" but I certainly believe it. It certainly felt like a "my life is complete" moment. Pure brilliance today.
Golf is more than just a game, it is a passion and something that a lot of people put their lives in. and to se the emotions from Olazábal, is something i will never forget in my whole life! thank you team europe for the sickest round of golf ever played, thank you for making history!
Rest in peace Seve!
Seve is the greatest golfer in my generation. nobody can beat his artistry and talent. too bad he died young. what a lost.
Grande Olazabal!!
This goes out to Jose Maria Olazabal and The entire team. It is the best game of golf I've ever seen, and you earned this victory. Seve must be up in heaven, looking down, and saying to his mates up there "See? I told you Jose's team would win it."
Just pure respect and leadership on another level.
ENORMES Jose Mari y Seve!!!
This was amazing event. So blessed to have watched it. My wife who doesn’t watch golf was going crazy along with me for Europe.
We were so far behind but we still came through
que grande Olazabal!!
the Ryder Cup unique... It's the 1 time where all of Europe leaves its in house "Bitchy Fighting" and "Political Backstabbing" to one side... and you feel like for just 4 days you really are part of something Special... and whether you win or lose, your all in it together..
least that's how I feel..
Well said! Couldnt agree more! London!
Awesome
They all did for Seve. As an American, it was clear that they all did it for, arguably, the best European Ryder Cupper of all time, Seve...
The fans were also incredible
Unbelievable day
A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles. rip seve..they did it for you.
Amazing video, Thank you Team Europe, thank you José Mª, thankyou ryder. Great moments!!!
One of the all time great sports achievements
I remember following the final round on poor internet signal, on 240p streaming with a few seconds lag I'm sure.
How many points were they behind? Was it 10 I remember? I was like: "No way, 10 points out of 12?". And then, they worked the magic: Rose, Poults, Sergio, Donald, Kaymer, and what about Manassero containing, cancelling Woods!? Like a dejavu of CONSTANTINO ROCCA in 1997 !
When Kaymer sank his putt for the last winning point I burst in tears, shouting, out of my room bouncing in sheer joy like I'd witnessed a miracle. I still CANNOT believe that day. What would have Seve said about this?!
We were 4 points down before the singles, and Molinari halved with Woods, not Manassero
Seve looked down from heaven, sprinkled his magic dust and they did the rest
right in the feels - 1 week to go till the next 1 !
I have to say i thought it would be too much for the players to deliver for Ollie, given how much it meant. Thankfully they delivered. IJP being the talisman. RIP Seve, you will always be an inspisation.
For Seve!!
Así se ganó el equipo de europeo, con la corazón y bien gigantes HUEVOS.
Europe now the force to be reckoned with
I’ll give you a moment, then asks a question immediate
You're welcome, an unbelievable day.
Proper sport real emotions
One of the greatest golfers ever. Seve will always be a legend but jose was definitely as good if not better
Bravo Jose. I was glued to the screen for hours. Waay better than Brookeline. This was on USA home soil on a course set up to favour the Americans. Jose chokes up and the USA choked.
Give him a moment then.. You don't.
Spanish Leadership.
Seve loved Ollie. Ollie loved Seve. The end.
Geezer!
sadly its what we have come to expect from the americans. a country whose biggest contribution to the game in recent years is the annoying shouts of GET IN THE HOLE
Not a dry eye in the house
So sad.
Mauricio respeto al contrario siempre y más si se trata de la institución americana
And victorious don't forget ha ha ha
Seve is Ryder
Why didn't he give him some time?
I'm smoking sticky
Why do they allow comments when there are so many disrespectful ones. There must be something wrong with some people. Malvin u should be banned from you tube with that comment. Get help man
makes for good TV- not fair to Ollie
LOL TIger!
