DVD Description
Relive all the greatest moments of the 36th Ryder Cup – unmissable viewing for any golf fan.

The official and exclusive account of this prestigious and highly anticipated event, where winning is rewarded with honour rather than prize money.

Across three compelling days in September Europe’s elite will go head-to-head with America’s all stars at the K Club in Dublin. With the European team striving for an unprecedented third consecutive victory and the US, led by world no. 1 Tiger Woods, eager to avenge their record defeat in 2004 ‘The 36th Ryder Cup’ is set to become one of the greatest golfing events of all time.

Capturing the intensity and rivalry of this magnificent sporting occasion, the programme runs for over two hours and features all the decisive action.

Video Description
It has been called the greatest Ryder Cup in history and surely none of the tens of thousands present at The K Club, or the one billion people watching the event live on TV would disagree!

For noise, passion and emotion The 36th Ryder Cup, played for the first time in Ireland, is unmatched. Europe, with arguably their finest team performance ever, made history by winning the Samuel Ryder Trophy for a third successive time.

From the courageous Darren Clarke, who was carried along on a wave of home support, to the sensational Sergio Garcia and Colin Montgomerie, once more the heartbeat of the European team, Captain Ian Woosnam had a dozen dynamic heroes. Just as at Oakland Hills, two years earlier, the American side were again overwhelmed by the record score of 18½ points to 9½.

Synopsis
Over two hours worth of decisive action from the K Club in Dublin as the European team takes on Tiger Woods and his fellow Americans in The 36th Ryder Cup, one of the greatest golfing events of all time.

Customer Reviews

Ryder Cup 2006
If you're like me and thought that this year's Ryder Cup was one of the greatest ever and want to have something to remember it by, then this is a great piece of history.

It covers the complete event really well without either over doing it, or losing the best parts. The extras are fantastic too, and include clips from the press conferences, hole-by-hole aerial views, clips from the Junior Ryder Cup and greatest moments.

My partner is also a keen golfer though not as much as myself, and was doubtful as to whether 2 and a half hours of the Ryder Cup on DVD would hold his attention. He admits being happily mistaken however and we'd both recommend this. A great victory!

THIRD TIME IN A ROW!!!!
Well could it be possible to beat the yanks for the third successive time (never been done before!!). Not only did we beat them, but managed to thrash them by the same margin as in 2004. This DVD follows all the matches & shots & although we won at a canter it still keeps you on the edge of your seat. Right up to one of the most emotional finishes to any sporting event, with Darren Clarke finally succumbing to all the feelings he'd been bottling up over the previous 4 days. Compelling watching for any Golf/sports fan.
