From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Good Walk Spoiled, a dramatic chronicle of the bitterly-fought 2016 Ryder Cup pitting a U.S. team out for revenge against the Europeans determined to keep the Cup out of American hands.Coming into 2016, the Americans had lost an astounding six out of the last seven Ryder Cup matches, and tensions were running high for the showdown that took place in October, 2016 in Hazeltine, Minnesota, just days after American legend Arnold Palmer had died. What resulted was one of the most raucous and heated three days in the Cup's long history. Award-winning author John Feinstein takes readers behind the scenes, providing an inside view of the dramatic stories as they unfolded: veteran Phil Mickelson's two-year roller-coaster as he upended the American preparation process and helped assemble a superb team; superstar Rory McIlroy becoming the clear-cut emotional leader of the European team, and his reasons for wanting to beat the US team so badly this time around; the raucous matches between McIlroy and American Patrick Reed - resulting in both incredible golf, and several moments that threatened to come to blows; the return of Tiger Woods not as a player but an assistant captain, and his obsession with helping the US win - which was never the case when he was playing. John Feinstein's classic bestseller, A Good Walk Spoiled, set the bar for golf books. Now Feinstein provides his unique take on the Ryder Cup, which has clearly become golf's most intense and emotional event...it's 'first Major.'

John Feinstein does a fine job of supporting his thesis – that the Ryder Cup is the most intense and emotional and the best major event in golf. I fully agree with him and, if anything, I think Mr. Feinstein understates the status of the Ryder Cup – I find it to be the most compelling event in all of sports, not just golf. In addition to intensity and emotion, the Ryder Cup combines the elements of match play, teamwork and a wonderful tradition with exciting finishes. I have been to the last four Ryder Cups, so I know much of what he is writing about, but I was very impressed with his research that enables him to present many anecdotes that had not been told before and to answer some questions about why certain decisions were made or not made.The book is about the 2016 Ryder Cup, but the author traces its roots back to the first Ryder Cup in 1927 and before. He then goes into more detail about each competition after the Ryder Cup became competitive in 1983. Almost all of the author’s opinions are logical and well-supported, but his criticism of the Official World Golf Ranking as a “flawed system” seems oversimplified. He criticizes the use of players' records over a two-year period without mentioning that the older tournaments carry less weight than current tournaments. The system might be imperfect, but I think using two years makes sense. For example, although Rory McIlroy only finished #58 in the 2016/2017 FedEx Cup standings, he is #6 in the OWGR based mostly on what he did in 2016. Presumably Mr. Feinstein thinks McIlroy should be ranked closer to #58 than #6, but I still consider him a top 10 golfer.This book has more than enough positive elements to merit a rating of 5, but there are also enough proof-reading issues that cause me to lower that rating to 4. It serves little purpose to list the proof-reading errors in this review, so I am showing nine examples in the first comment to the review.
