MESSAGE FROMThE 39Th RyDER CUP CAPTAINS

Since its inception in 1927, the ryder Cup has embodied golf’s highest ideals of sportsmanship, honesty and integrity. Throughout the years, players have represented their countries and the game of golf with pride and honor.

while partisanship is natural, it is important to remember that the ryder Cup is intended to be a friendly competition between the best golfers on two continents. The sportsmanship of the spectators plays a vital role in the continuing spirit and success of the ryder Cup.

In order to preserve this grand tradition, we hope that there will be no excessive partisanship displayed by the gallery. while all good shot making should be applauded, the prospective misfortunes of an opposing player should not be celebrated -- nor should comments of any kind be made while a player prepares to hit his shot.

on behalf of all the players, we thank you for your cooperation in making the 39th ryder Cup at Medinah Country Club the most memorable in history.

enjoy the 2012 ryder Cup!
