Ryder and the storm

I have to start this week with the spectacular victory for Europe in the Ryder Cup last weekend at Medinah in Chicago.

Having only recently taken up the sport myself, I was engrossed all weekend in the superb golf on show from both teams.

Having dominated the first two days, the USA were in control going into the singles matches on Sunday but the fight and determination the European team showed was truly inspirational, especially when you take into account the fact that Rory McIlroy turned up in a police car with ten minutes to spare!
