1979 International Ryder Cup Matches at The Greenbrier Table Lighter
A new era for the Ryder Cup had begun with the contest at Greenbrier in 1979. Players from continental Europe participated in the Ryder Cup in hopes of changing the extensive US dominance. With Seve on hand, the new Team Europe replaced Great Britain and Ireland as the official opposition to the United States. When all was said and done though, the United States dominated the competition by a score of 17 to 11 points. An impressive victory for the Americans, even with Nicklaus failing to make the team for the first time since becoming eligible in 1969. Here we offer the oversize 1979 Ryder Cup Matches branded lighter that was offered and obtained by select individuals for the biennial matches. It remains in very good condition, with the paint intact. 2" x 2" x 3 1/2"
