Fresh off the excitement of this year’s truly mesmerizing Ryder Cup, we are quite pleased to offer a historic collection of memorabilia from the 1999 Ryder Cup. The ’99 Ryder Cup at Brookline will go down, to Americans at least, as perhaps the most dramatic and famous Ryder Cup in history. Facing what seemed like insurmountable odds, Captain Ben Crenshaw led the US squad to an epic comeback that will forever be etched into Ryder Cup lore. We are currently offering the finest collection of 1999 Ryder Cup memorabilia to ever to reach the auction block. This memorabilia comes from a past President of the PGA who was a key figure at the 1999 Ryder Cup.

1999 Ryder Cup Player Ring

Offered here is an actual "Player" ring from from the 1999 Ryder Cup. Though 20 trophies and Rolexes were produced for the '99 Ryder Cup, the rings were produced in fewer quantities. The ring is believed to have been made by Jostens. This 1999 Ryder Cup ring is unworn, and is in mint condition in its original case. This is the first time that a 1999 Ryder Cup ring has ever been offered publicly for sale. The ring is size 10.5.
