Rocca was one up with two to play and went bogey-bogey to cost Europe the cup. The following Ryder Cup, Strange did the same thing against Faldo to cost US the cup.
This was always my favorite Ryder Cup. The intensity of Faldo, and the joy of watching Floyd compete with players half his age. As a side note, the captain of the team almost won the British Open 16 years later. Of course Tom is one of the greats, but it’s still amazing to think about in 1993.
You called it. Floyd was nails. Hale Irwin probably should have made the 97 team. He was on fire 🔥 winning everywhere on the Sr Tour. Playing lites out.
I always wondered this also. I have read that he has turned it down multiple times due to the responsibilities and time it takes. He enjoys being a vice captain and captain during Presidents Cups which he has done multiple times. I wish he would change his mind. Think he would be good when the Ryder Cup goes to Bethpage in 2025.
Common PGA 🇺🇸 open up the vault on all the old footage please. Grow the game 🙌 ⛳️ 🏌️♂️

The Americans have a jolly hard time pronouncing Olazabal.
Nearly 30 years of hurt for America long may it continue.
smells like 30 years of Euro-butthurt to me
It's been long enough
Apparently not! Let’s see in 2027..
The Peter baker putting exhibition
He was unreal that day
Why has Couples never been a Ryder Cup Captain?
