History of the Ryder Cup offers viewers one of the first documentary overviews of golf's most envied and prestigious awards, from its establishment in 1926, by Sam Ryder, a St. Albans seed merchant - when the United States took on Britain at the Wentworth Club in Surrey - through the present day. Via interviews and rare archival footage shot on the green, this program covers the many highlights over the course of Ryder's first eighty years.
