    The shot at the Belfry was to actually halve the Ryder cup but as Europe were the reigning holders, they retained it.

    Passed away on holidays in Tenerife. Not a bad way to go. RIP.

    Respect for Christy O'Conner for his efforts in the Ryder Cup and golf in general.
    Thanks for the memories.
