WATCH: Ian Woosnam on Darren Clarke and the 2006 Ryder Cup

“In 2006 the Ryder Cup was all about Darren Clarke and the European team saying goodbye to Heather Clarke.”

In 2006 the Ryder Cup was played at the Palmer Course of the K Club; the first time the event was played in Ireland.

This would have made it a huge event in Ireland anyway, but the inclusion of Darren Clarke as one of the wild card picks on the European team increased the emotion a hundredfold.
