After a long time of nine years    United states has won the ryder cup and all the credit goes to the United States captain Paul Azinger who is alway keen to win the matches and he did well in the match and beats Europe captain Nick Faldo at Valhalla and gains ryder cup for United States .This has been the great achievement for United States golf fans must be excited in this victory of United States.

Nick Faldo also worked hard to win this tournament but there are numerous factors which are involved in the defeats of European team.Padraig Harrington, Lee Westwood and Sergio GarcÍa, three of his senior players, won 2½ points from a possible 11. Ian Poulter won more points than the stars, as did Justin Rose. Graeme McDowell got as many.

GarcÍa had been ill in the weeks before the event and was not his usual overrevving self. Harrington was tired, exhausted by the after-effects of winning two major championships in four weeks;

Azinger’s planning began nearly two years ago, when he chose Olin Browne, Ray Floyd and Dave Stockton as his vice-captains. Putting each of them in charge of a four-man group meant that Azinger delegated some of the preparations. “I didn’t see Anthony Kim hit a practice shot until Thursday evening - I relied on Ray Floyd,” Azinger said by way of example.
