Because of the confusion surrounding ticket distribution the organisers have made additional arrangements for the collection of tickets for any spectators who have not received their tickets via DHL.
Tickets can be collected at The Ambassador Hotel (Kill, Co.Kildare — Tel 00 353 45877064)
Collect your tickets from the Boardroom on the first floor. As always please ensure you bring the requisite documentation and identification.

Yep this is true albeit a little unbelievable. The southern park and ride facility for the Ryder Cup is moving. The park and ride facility which was previously located at Palmerstown House/PGA National Centre at Johnstown will no longer be in operation due to boggy conditions. Instead the new park ‘n ride facility will be located at the Punchestown Racecourse where (more…)
Take your umbrella and a large dose of patience if you’re off to the K Club for the Ryder cup. The BBC have slammed the practice day organisation at the K Club as inefficient, badly planned and poorly run. Citing flaws in the public transport system and huge delays reporters at the event have been scathing with respect to the organisation. (more…)
Well contrary to what has been said on previous articles on this site I just found out this morning that it is possible to change the name on your Ryder Cup tickets. You need to contact the Ryder Cup Ticket office by using their contact form on www.rcts.co.uk or by emailing them at names@rcts.co.uk. You will need to send the full details for the orginal ticket holder and for the name of the person you wish to assign it to (this includes passport numbers and full names, addresses and dates of birth).
The bad news I’m afraid is that having tried all contact methods this morning I still am awaiting a response from them. If anybody else has any experience with this, positive or negative, please do let us know.
For regular readers to this site you may remember way back in May we tried to make a prediction at about what the weather for the upcoming Ryder Cup would be like. Not that we’re a little closer to the event we might try and be a little more exact! (more…)
Well we’ve entered the final week of the Ryder Cup countdown and by this time next week we’ll know who the winners of the 2006 Ryder Cup are going to be (I’m swinging back towards Europe after a brief period backing the US!). In the meantime there’s loads of news and no news. (more…)
Everywhere you turn they are talking about the Ryder Cup – so what’s all the fuss about?
Well, it’s golf. Golf, golf and more golf; it’s like the World Cup final in the golf world (the difference being of course only the USA and Europe are allowed to play!). We’ve been writing about the Ryder Cup for a while now but this might be a good time to do a quick recap to help you bluff your way through the birdies, pars and tigers of the competition! (more…)
NB: Please see the most recent Park and Ride post which shows the changed Ryder Cup park and ride facilities. This map is no longer up to date.
Everyone attending the Ryder Cup is advised that there is NO vehicular access to the event except through the Park and Ride facilities.
There are 2 park and ride facilities for the Ryder Cup:
- North Park and Ride at Weston Aerodrome
- South Park and Ride at PGA National Ireland at Johnstown (more…)
If you are attending the Ryder Cup Matches at the K Club be aware that there are a number of banned items which you cannot bring into the grounds. The prohibited items list includes (Ladders!) and the following: (more…)
Three performances stand out on in career of Paul McGinley; representing Ireland on the winning team of the Golf World Cup in 1997, holing the winning put at the Belfry to secure victory for the European Team in the 2002 Ryder Cup and winning the Volvo Masters at Valderrama in 2005. These were big performances in big events but can he replicate it? Based on his current run of form the omens don’t look good and Woosnam must be worried.
At the weekend just gone McGinley again failed to make the cut at the Singapore Masters by a full five strokes. In the previous competition at the BMW International Open McGinley also failed to make the cut when a a big performance was needed from him to make absolutely sure of his own Ryder Cup place. (more…)
