It’s the event that turns the typically individual sport of golf into a thrilling team competition of the highest level.

It’s a biennial battle over three days between the 12 best players in the United States and the finest 12 players Europe has to offer.

If you haven’t guessed it yet it is the The Ryder Cup and the 40th edition this year takes place at the legendary PGA Centenary Course at Gleneagles, Scotland.

Match play manual

Match play is a scoring system in which a player, or team, earns one point for each hole they win.

The Ryder Cup uses three formats of match play; Fourballs, Foursomes and Singles.
