At the press conference held on the eve of the tournament, Colin Montgomerie, alongside Peter Baker, took a stroll down memory lane, reminiscing about the 1993 Ryder Cup at the Belfry.
This year’s tournament features a star-studded lineup reminiscent of the iconic 1993 Ryder Cup, with Major winners and renowned names from yesteryear in contention. Colin Montgomerie, aiming to recapture his 2015 victory, still cherishes his remarkable birdie, eagle (hole-in-one) birdie finish that propelled him to the top of the leaderboard.
