RYDER
CUP 2001
The Ryder Cup gets bigger every time the match is played. The result is
always on a knife-edge, the tension is unbearable and the atmosphere at
the matches is electric.
As the home of the PGA in Britain, The Belfry is a special place.
The famous Brabazon Course poses the ultimate challenge and facilities
for spectators are quite superb. Designed by ex-Ryder Cup star Dave
Thomas, the course has matured into one of Britain's best, with the
signature 18th hole a fitting place to end many a titanic struggle.
We have full details of Ryder Cup packages approved by the European
PGA. Why not warm up for the event by playing some of England's finest
championship links and make a week of it?
