This Day in Ryder Cup History: September 26

The American team will try to win the Ryder Cup starting today at Bethpage Black on Long Isand. On this date in 1993, the U.S. beat the Euros, 15-13, at The Belfry in England. Davis Love III won the securing point in a 1-up Singles win over Costantino Rocca of Italy, making a winner of Captain Tom Watson. A more stirring U.S. victory was on this date in 1999 at The Country Club in Brookline, Mass., when the U.S. came back from trailing 10-6 with Singles to go and won by a point.
