This Day in Ryder Cup History: September 30

A pair of Ryder Cups ended on this date. In 2012 at Medinah Country Club, Europe blitzed the singles matches to retain the Cup 14½-13½, and in 2018 at Le Golf National, Europe stomped on the Americans, 17½–10½. In Arnold Palmer history on this date, in 1972 he shot a 74 in the final round of the John Player Classic, at Turnberry in Scotland, to finish off a tournament week of 71-73-73-74—291, and a tie for seventh.
