Ryder Cup Wales

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008

The 38th Ryder Cup Matches will be held in Wales in the Celtic Manor Resort which is located in the beautiful Usk valley close to Newport in South Wales.

For accommodation for the event contact the Ryder Cup Travel Services who are co-ordinating bookings for the majority of hotels within a 30 mile radius. Their (UK) contact number is 0870 755 3004.

Tickets will as usual be issued by lottery to be announced after the 2008 event – we’ll keep you posted…

Wales has some wonderful courses that are worth a visit if you are traveling to the event, including the Royal St Davids, which dates back to 1894, Cardigan and Cradoc – to mention just a few. Feel free to let us know what your favourite Welsh course is and why…
