The 31st Ryder Cup Matches were held at the Oak Hill Country Club in Pittsford, New York. The European team won the competition by a margin of 14½ to 13½ points to win back the Cup.
The 33rd Ryder Cup Matches, also known as the "Battle of Brookline",[1] were held between September 24–26 at The Country Club in Brookline, Massachusetts. The American team won the competition by a margin of 14½ to 13½, the closest score possible in a Ryder Cup competition except for a tie. The Europeans, leading 10-6 heading into the final round, needed only 4 points on the final day to retain the cup. But the Americans rallied on Sunday, winning the first 6 matches of the day to surge into the lead. Jim Furyk upset Sergio García to give the Americans their 8th point of the day, and the Americans recaptured the cup when Justin Leonard halved his match with José María Olazábal.
In front of a very passionate group of fans, a talented US Ryder Cup team put the pieces together and defended home soil in 2016 at Hazeltine National Golf Club in Minnesota. This team was guided by captain David Love III, as well as the playing experience by members and most notably Phil Mickelson. Lefty is a fan favorite and of the 188 American golfers that have played in the international matches, the patriotic Phil Mickelson's 12 appearances are the most. 2016 very likely represented Mickelson's last Ryder Cup win, as the team came up empty in 2018.
