This Day in Golf History: April 27

Following a 9.5 to 2.5 American victory in the 1st Ryder Cup in 1927, the second finished on this date in 1929 with Great Britain winning 7-5 at Moortown Golf Club in Leeds, England. It was played in harsh cold and snowy conditions and even hail at one time. Just 2,000 fans saw the action, in which the U.S. led by a slim total after Day 1 of 2.5 to 1.5, but on Day 2 GB won the session 5.5 to 2.5 for victory.
