History

Historical Context

The Ryder Cup, a prestigious golf competition between the U.S. and Europe, began in 1927. The 1991 event at Kiawah Island, known as "the War on the Shore," saw the U.S. team narrowly defeat Europe 14.5 to 13.5, heightening international rivalry. As political figures like President Trump attend future matches, the intersection of sports and national pride continues to shape public perception.
