This Day in Golf History: September 24

A pair of Ryder Cups concluded on this date. In 1995 at Oak Hill Country Club in Rochester, N.Y., Europe won the 31st Ryder Cup in a thriller 14½-13½ with Irishman Philip Walton beating Jay Haas for the clinching point. European team beating the U.S. in a thriller, 14½-13½. It was a stinging defeat for the Americans to lose on home turf. And in 2006, at the K Club, Ireland, Europe won a third straight time, this one in a breeze, 18½-9½.
