It highlights the beauty of Andalusia[1], especially golf courses on the Costa del Sol along the coastline. [1] Andalusia is the southernmost autonomous community in Peninsular Spain. It is the most populous and the second-largest autonomous community in the country. ABOUT THE RYDER CUP:One of Samuel Ryder's greatest achievements was the introduction of an annual trophy for a competition between a North American and a British team of golfers. This was called the Ryder Cup. Since 1927 when the tournament was officially created, it has gone through many changes, the most important, perhaps, the inclusion of European players in the British team in 1979 Today, the Ryder Cup is a competition held every two years between Europe and the USA. Each team comprises twelve players and a captain (who does not play). The tournament lasts three days. On the first and second day, eight doubles, four foursomes and four matches are played and on the third day twelve individual matches are played. The winners get to keep the original trophy, a gold cup with the image of Abe Mitchell, a professional player and Samuel Ryder's teacher, before risking it again in the next tournament. Until 1995, the Ryder Cup was played alternatively in the USA or Great Britain but in 1997 it was held for the first time out of the UK, at the Valderrama Golf Club in Spain.--excerpts from andalucia.com
