This Day in Golf--Nov. 23

Every so often, an event is devised that tries to capture the feel of the Ryder Cup. Such a senior event was the UBS Warburg Cup, held for a few years in the early 2000s. It was a U.S. versus Rest of the World team match. On this date in 2003, that year's event wrapped up in a 12-12 tie. The U.S. retained the cup because it had won the previous playing. Arnold Palmer was the U.S. captain, and he lost in the final-day singles, 1 down, to Tony Jacklin.
