The first tee shot has not been hit for the 2010 Ryder Cup in Wales, yet the bidding process is officially in full swing for the 2o18 edition of the event when Europe again hosts. The 2014 Ryder Cup will be played at Gleneagles Hotel in Scotland.
I am delighted to read of the creative thinking required to secure the event as described by Reuters and the desire to combine the event with a legacy achievement. however, for the golfing purist I would enjoy seeing the event played over one of the more famous links courses. Some would argue it has become too commercial but if the by product of that is a legacy program, maybe that is a small price to pay.
