We won two tickets in a national newspaper competition for thursday and friday. We got badges and guides. Should there have been tickets or are they the same as the badge.

Tickets are a matter for ryder cup to discuss but I understand that a condition of purchase was that tickets were not transferable. When purchasing you had to submit passport details as proof of identity to ensure that tickets would not end up on the black market. It is advisable to bring your passport with you as proof of identity. Other forms of picture identification will suffice.) <strong>No Pedestrian Access</strong> You CANNOT walk into the Ryder Cup. The only access is through park and ride. <strong>No Taxi Access</strong> You CANNOT get a taxi to the K Club. The only access is through park and ride. So you've got to get your taxi to take you to the park and ride. <strong>No Private Bus Access</strong> You CANNOT get to the K Club in a Private Bus. You've got to get your bus to drop you at the park and ride. The only access is through park and ride. <strong>No Alcohol</strong> You CANNOT take any alcohol into the event (though I'm sure you can buy it inside at a premium price!)
