Overview
For years it was a non-event but, since 1983, the Ryder Cup has been a full-blooded, nerve jangling battle of wits and talent between Europe and America's finest professional golfers, their captains - and their caddies. HOW WE WON THE RYDER CUP begins with America's strangehold broken at The Belfry in 1985, when Sam Torrance, as a player, set the seal on Europe's finest hour for 28 years. The book climaxes with the emotional Torrance, this time as captain, leading his unheralded players to victory in 2002 at the same Belfry arena. The players hit the shots, but their trusty caddies shared the hope and glory and the misery of defeat. What was it like helping Torrance turn the tide in 1985? Who was the 'Yank in the Camp' who mixed it with Europe's caddies in 1987? Who helped make Christy O'Connor Junior's two iron a legend in the famour finale of 1989? How did Bernhard Langer's bagman see the 'spike mark' putt in 1991 that ended Europe's glorious run, and what was the real story behind the infamous 'different balls' controversy that year? What could have been the reason for the 17th hole miss that ended Europe's bid to regain the Cup in 1993? Who gave Philip Walton the strength to prevail in 1995? Which player, as revealed by his caddie, had a premonition he would be drawn against and beat Tiger Woods at Valderrama in 1997? What was it like suffering the taunts of Brookline
