    Product description

    The official DVD review of the 2010 Ryder Cup, from Celtic Manor, features every key pitch, every important putt, every vital point of the 38th Ryder Cup! It was a Ryder Cup which was only finally decided by the outcome of the final singles match - Graeme McDowell v Hunter Mahan - on the final day, on the 17th green!

    The most anticipated event in golf came to Wales for the first time in October 2010 as Colin Montgomerie led a European team thirsting for Ryder Cup revenge.

    Two years ago in Kentucky the USA wrestled the cup out of European hands for the first time since 1999 and Monty was desperate to deny rival captain Corey Pavin a successful defence and retain the sport’s most famous trophy.

    Europe’s team bristled with superstars including the 21 year old Northern Irish phenomenon, Rory McIlory and his likely partner and fellow countryman, Graeme McDowell - the new US Open Champion.

    Alongside them were England’s Lee Westwood – the most consistent performer in the world of golf in the last two years.

    Pavin’s team was also bursting with talent including the world’s best two players - Tiger Woods wanted to end a troubled year on a high and Masters champion Phil Mickelson was ready to repair a recent poor Ryder Cup record.

    Leading 9½-6½ overnight after the third day of a rain-interrupted Ryder Cup, Colin Montgomerie's men knew they needed only a further five points from the 12 remaining matches to regain the trophy they lost at Valhalla two years ago.

    In the early stages they looked comfortably on course to do so as they got themselves ahead in no fewer than 8 of the 12 matches and the scoreboard was predominantly blue.

    But as the day progressed America launched a concerted fightback and the match built to a dramatic climax.

    As a number of one-sided games headed towards their inevitable conclusions, it became increasingly apparent that the whole 2010 Ryder Cup would come down to the final singles contest between Graeme McDowell and Hunter Mahan.

    That was confirmed when US rookie Rickie Fowler brilliantly birdied the final four holes of his match with Edoardo Molinari to grab a dramatic half point that left the score delicately poised at 13½-13½.

    Needing a full point to secure the win, US Open champion McDowell sent cheers reverberating around the course as his 15-foot putt for birdie at the 16th agonisingly took an age to drop to move two-up with two to play.

    Victory was then confirmed when Mahan, following a poor chip, failed to sink a long putt for his par at the short 17th, conceding McDowell's putt to spark wild European celebrations.

    An emotional Montgomerie told Sky Sports afterwards: "It means the world for European golf. It's a very proud moment for us all here in Europe.

    "They all played to a man magnificently. I knew I had a great 12.

    "Obviously it went down to one game going down the last, but I don't want to talk about that, I just want to talk about every player playing the way they did."

    Of McDowell's performance, he added: "G-Mac was put there for a very good reason. He's the US Open champion, he's full of confidence and that showed. That birdie on 16 was unbelieveable."

    Asked if it was the proudest moment of his career, he joked: "Well I didn't hit a shot!" But the Scot added: "It's a proud, proud moment for me personally."

    With the match having headed into a Monday finish for the first time in its history, it was Europe who made all the early running with Lee Westwood getting himself ahead in a high-quality top match with Steve Stricker and the team-mates behind him following suit.

    But with most Europeans only enjoying slender leads, slowly but surely the tide began to turn as the American players painted more and more red on the scoreboard.

    It was the visitors who claimed the first two points of the day as Stricker completed a fine 2&1 win over Westwood and Dustin Johnson thumped Martin Kaymer 6&4.

    The Europeans responded, Rory McIlroy claiming a crucial half point from his encounter with Stewart Cink after a brave putt at the last and Luke Donald and Ian Poulter both emerging triumphant.

    But Miguel Angel Jimenez was to provide the only other success for Montgomerie before McDowell took centre stage.

    The Spaniard, who had lost his three previous singles encounters in Ryder Cup competition, produced a confident display to see off Bubba Watson with a 4&3 win.

    After that Corey Pavin's men dominated with Tiger Woods showing glimpses of his best form to come from two-down early on to thrash Francesco Molinari 4&3 and Phil Mickelson, Jeff Overton and Zach Johnson also clinching resounding victories.

    Fowler then conjured his remarkable comeback to set European nerves jangling, but McDowell retained his composure to ensure Europe will head to Medinah in two years time as holders.

    As ever it was an intense, immense, nerve shredding four days of golf. This official DVD brings you all of the very best action and interviews from Celtic Manor in a comprehensive and extensive DVD review. Every key pitch, every important putt, every vital point of the 2010 Ryder Cup!
