The 1975 Ryder cup was played in Laurel Valley Golf Club in Ligonier, Pennsylvania. It was the last one of its kind since it was played with a 32-point format. Since then, the current format of play had changed. Along with Arnold Palmer players like Raymond Floyd, Johnny Miller, and Jack Nicklaus were present.

The 1975 Ryder Cup was the 25th edition of that tournament.

Mr. Palmer said, ”What a team I Had that year- golf’s equivalent of the dream team and maybe the best Ryder Cup squad ever.’

The only exception to the USA’S win was Brian Barnes of team Europe beating legendary Jack Nicklaus twice in one day.

Remembering Arnold Palmer

Palmer was truly an ambassador of the game from his flamboyant style to his charisma on and off the golf course. He was also among the few golfer and athletes who knew how to operate an aircraft. He used to fly his plane to tournament destinations by himself which is uncannily unique.

His gentlemen-type attitude is one that the game of golf must be grateful for; not to forget his never giving up attitude. He will truly be an immortal legend.
