Ryder Cup 2008
The 37th Ryder Cup Matches will be held at the Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville Kentucky. The dates have been set for 19th-21st of September in 2008. This should be a cliff hanger of an event as the US Team try to win back the trophy on home ground. Who will captain the US team? How will he motivate the US stars to victory over the weight of European Ryder Cup experience. Nick Faldo captains the Europeans and will be gearing up to lead the Europeans in their attempt to hold on to the trophy.
The Valhalla course was designed by Jack Nicklaus and has a links style front 9 with a more traditional parkland layout on the back 9. The club is private and is owned by the PGA of America.
The tickets for this event have not gone on sale yet but you can register your interest at the PGA here.

Just wanted to let someone know that “Nickluas” is misspelled in paragraph two. It should be spelled “Nicklaus”. Do a get free Ryder Cup tickets for this find? Just kidding and have a great day.

Cory,
Thanks for that. You sure do get those free tickets for Ryder Cup 2008. Now to collect them all you have to do is play in all of the top competitions and get enough points to be in the top 10 players from September 2007 to September 2008 and you’ll get free tickets, a jacket and all sorts of goodies! :)
Much appreciated, thanks.

Ryder Cup 2008 - Does anyone know the radius distance from Vahalla you have to be in to receive free or dicounted tickets? Here’s a video titled “what to expect”. Local people and their comments on the Ryder Cup and it being on their doorstep.
