Items related to How We Won the Ryder Cup: The Caddies' Stories...
Here caddies tell of the triumphs and disappointments of Ryder Cup clashes from 1985 to the present. These are the insights and behind-the-scenes stories from the bag-men who were there with the world-famous players. Sam Torrance's caddie recalls the historic putt which gave the first victory over the Americans after 28 years in 1985; Ballesteros' caddie recalls a "different balls" controversy; Bernard Langer's caddie recounts the story of the famous missed five-footer putt which lost the Cup in 1991; and Costantino Rocca's caddie tells of the decisions which helped his man beat Tiger Woods in 1997. Each chapter includes a biography of the caddie and his player, a resume of the match, and a description of the trials and tribulations on the course.

About the Author:
After a 12-year career in the Royal Navy, 18 months in the Foreign Office and six months selling semi-conductors, Norman Dabell finally achieved his dream of becoming a journalist and, eventually, an author. Following spells on weekly, then daily, newspapers he launched a freelance golf journalism and broadcasting career in 1989, during which he worked notably for BBC 'Five Live' and BBC Radio Ulster, the Observer, Daily Telegraph, all of Ireland's major newspapers and Reuters news agency. Norman has also written six successful books on golf, including an entertaining memoir of a calamitous life on tour called Natural Hazard.
Having hung up his laptop, he now lives with wife Sharon, also an author, peacefully (but always wary of fate) in the Highlands of Scotland.
