The European team won their second consecutive competition by a score of 15 to 13 points in probably the most historic Ryder Cup. After an unbeaten record of 13-0 spanning sixty years, the U.S. team lost for the first time on home soil.

Seve brought it home. Millions of people like golf because of him.
7:37 This was Seve's best memory of golf, hugging Nick. Nick's best memory came eight years later in '95 in his Sunday singles match against Curtis, when Seve came to hug him in a flood of tears.
I so remember that Ryder Cup. Darcy's point particularly interested me. His uncle, Bay Darcy, taught my dad to play, & Eamon caddied for my dad at Delanny. Something I did years later. Big slopes as I remember.
Makes me mad to think the masters didn't invite half of this team to play in a so called major for years. All were mostly top 50 players and won lots and disgustingly ignored by Hord, especially Darcy. Win 4 European events, 6 world wide and 4 time Ryder cupper. Easily for years in the top 50 and never got an invite to the masters wtf!!! Almost won the open in 91, but that was the arrogance of the masters back then, gladly it's changed now and I still smile watching Darcy beat Crenshaw who was a real gentleman about the whole day
It was fitting that Seve holed the winning putt #Superstar
I recall Faldo saying at Heathrow Airport that he had read in the paper that Jack Nickalaus had said that he had the twelve best players in the world and Faldo and the rest of the team all looked around and thought is Jack saying that Seve in the thirteenth best player in the world.
It wasn’t Jack
It was Raymond Floyd in 1989
@@nicholasjones8572 Correct - Jacklin retort was 'Really, does that make Ballesteros the 13th?'
I was just talking about Eamon Darcy the other day to a fellow golfer (his HCP 6 to my 8) as his swing reminded me so much of the Irish fella's. Darcy had probably the WORST technical swing in the history of tour golf, but he still managed to hit the ball sweetly. There were SO many moving parts, my golfing partner is exactly the same...
The only way I can describe it is if you try imagining a puppet on strings hitting a golf ball! :-/
Wrists & elbows break early, the knees wobble, the head is moving around, the club is flying around like a whirling dervish but he, like Darcy, somehow lands the clubface right behind the ball and more often than not hits the sweet spot!
I'll never know how either of them did it, but I just shake my head in admiration. :-)
From Jones to Hogan to Nicklaus to Darcy to Furyk. They're all square at impact. How they get there is irrelevant.
@@jonathanlynch8372 When I consider how much we all spend to try to achieve the right swing mechanics, how they get there is also irreverent!
nice to see that my grandad competed in this competition too bad he retired this year
Darcy, he is the golf coach's nightmare but nuff said...
7:15: the Langer/Nelson mutual concession. Time & mythology have stretched those putts out to six, sometimes eight, feet. But in truth they were little more than two feet.
Still not tap-ins though. Those kind of putts are usually not conceded.
@@joavim Very true. I think they couldn’t decide who was furthest away. Rather than get the tape measure out and faff around embarrassingly, they just agreed to call it a half. I’m sure neither would’ve missed, but it was a nice moment.
Only 3 of the European's won their singles matches on the Sunday, Howard Clark, Eamon Darcy & Seve. Torrance halved his match.
Said Torrance halved his match then two seconds later it shows Torrance won
Anyone else notice all the commentary errors?? Seems poor for an official film....!
Yes, plenty of them. For instance, at the start he said Jacklin was with the American team. He also said Lyle was dormie, even though he was down in the match.
Starting a baseless rumor: Because Larry Nelson conceded the winning putt at Nicklaus' Muirfield Village in 1987, Jack has had him blackballed from becoming captain ever since. Prove me wrong.
Shawn McDonald nelson 3 majors brilliant ryder cup record probably along with billy casper the most underrated golfer of all time. Shouldve been captain but if your not part of the clique its game over.
That wasn't the winning putt. Was a halve. But your theory sounds good to me.
@@aha3885 It was the putt that allowed the Europeans to retain the cup.
Eamon Darcy. His greatest moment. My favourite player. My swing is even more unorthodox than his and I very seldom make contact with the ball.
How do you break your putter at the damn Ryder cup???
Hit it off the nearest tree. Usually works for me.

Did Crenshaw put with an Iron on 18th?
He putted with an iron since the 7th hole, and almost halved the match.
Crenshaw was always over-rated and a bottler.
Seve an theatrics?? Very disrespectful and not worthy for this great man and for the game of golf
