1999 Ryder Cup Official Poster

Signed by Winning U.S. Team

(w/ Crenshaw Letter)

             The 1999 Ryder Cup is far and away the most famous (and, therefore, collectible) Ryder Cup tournament in recent memory. The United States team faced a seemingly insurmountable deficit going into the Sunday matches. Everyone knows how this story ends - Justin Leonard sunk a 45-foot putt to win the Ryder Cup for the Americans.

            Presented here is the actual team-signed official poster that was presented to players at the 1999 Ryder Cup. The entire United States team has signed this rare poster, including Tiger Woods, Captain Ben Crenshaw and, yes, the hero of the day, Justin Leonard.

            This great piece comes with a letter of authenticity from Ben Crenshaw's agent and manager, Scott Sayers. The only other example of this highly sought-after poster that we have seen come up for sale sold for $3,530 in our August 2011 Golf Auction. The poster measures 24 1/2" x 32 1/2"
