Welcome to the 2010 Ryder Cup

A proud sporting nation writes another glorious chapter in its illustrious history when the Ryder Cup comes to the heart of South Wales in the autumn of 2010. The historic weekend is the first time the Ryder Cup arrives to Wales.

The magnificent Celtic Manor Resort nestled in beautiful countryside on the outskirts of Newport, is the venue for one of sports most fascinating contests.

The Twenty Ten Course at the Celtic Manor Resort opened in July 2007, is the first course in Ryder Cup History purposely designed and built for golf’s most prestigious team event. The par 71 measuring 7493 yards was designed to provide a supreme challenge to the worlds best golfers in match play conditions.

It offers classic match dilemmas with opportunities for long hitters to chance their arm over the water or take a safety first approach.

There are nine new holes developed along the floor of the beautiful Usk Valley and nine remodelled holes form the former Wentwood Hills Championship course.

Importantly they were all shaped with the spectator in mind with better viewing vantage points than in any previous Ryder Cup Match.

This means the lucky golfing galleries will get a unique close-up on a tournament now regarded as one of the worlds biggest sporting events, as Europe look to avenge their defeat by the Americas at Valhalla in 2008.

Inevitably, Welsh passion and patriotism will be running high when the re-match comes around so it makes perfect sense to be part of what will be an unbeatable and unforgettable experience.

The clock is ticking, the countdown is under way and it is time to reserve your place to ensure a slice of the action......
