Summary

The 1991 Ryder Cup changed the event forever. But how? We chatted with many of the key players of the event, including Paul Azinger, Bernhard Langer, Mark Calcavecchia, Dave Stockton, Hale Irwin, Paul Broadhurst, Corey Pavin, Jim Moriarty, Lanny Wadkins, and more. Soly read every book he could find, scoured YouTube, and came up with this two hour episode full of some famous stories, and some that you probably haven't heard. From Seve's antics, his feud with Azinger, Calc's breakdown, a car crash, a rivalry among captains, all the way down to the final putt. This was a blast to put together, and we appreciate you listening.  Some key sources for this episode: Curt Sampson's book "The War by the Shore": https://www.amazon.com/War-Shore-Incomparable-Drama-Ryder/dp/159240796X Bernard Gallacher's book "Captain at Kiawah": https://www.amazon.com/Captain-at-Kiawah-Bernard-Gallacher/dp/1855925664 Golf Digest's "The Rowdy Ryder Cup at Kiawah": https://www.golfdigest.com/story/1991-ryder-cup-at-kiawah Learn more about your ad choices.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to a special edition of the No Laying Up

podcast. My name is Chris

Solomon and today's episode is going to be a deep dive into the 1991 Rider Cup.

This episode is brought to you by our partner, BMW, who is of course a global partner of the

Rider Cup and we greatly appreciate the support they've given us on several
