All Episodes

August 18, 2020 • 48 mins

In 1999, Mark ‘Jesse’ James captained Team Europe in the 33rd Ryder Cup, selecting rookie Andrew Coltart as part of his Brookline-bound side. The first singles match teed off on the final day with the men in blue holding a commanding 10-6 lead, but the USA's Ben Crenshaw had assembled a formidable line-up, cheered on by a raucous home crowd. As Justin Leonard holed a miracle putt on the 17th, and supporters and teammates flooded the green, the fightback was all but complete: Europe would relinquish the Ryder Cup. Alongside Josh Antmann, James and Coltart dissect the events of that weekend.
