This review is from: Ryder Cup '99 - Brookline, Massachusetts (DVD)

This Ryder Cup was truly the greatest golf Tournament that I have ever seen. I remember watcing the NBC coverage, and I truly felt that the US couldn't come back. The way they did it was truly unbelievable. I was so happy to here that there was a DVD coming out on the event and went it was released, I immediately bought it. The DVD truly allows you to see how remarkable a comeback it was. It was undoubtedly a comeback for the ages. A must for every fan of U.S. Golf

This review is from: Ryder Cup '99 - Brookline, Massachusetts (DVD)

Without a doubt, this Ryder Cup will go down in history as the greatest ever. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of the DVD.

From start to finish, the feel of the thing is that the producers had something better to do. The whole presentation feels like it's on fast forward. Choppy and disjointed!

And then there is what is left out altogether. Those of you who watched this one live will remember the actions of Payne Stewart toward his opponent, Colin Montgomerie. The matches had already been decided but Stewart and Montgomerie were still on the course. The fans had been merciless in their heckling of the big Scot and Stewart knew it. And, then, in a gesture of consummate sportsmanship, Stewart conceded the putt and the match to Monty! He just walked over and picked up Montgomerie's ball marker for a fifteen foot putt and ended the matches.

Afterward in an interview, Stewart explained that it just didn't matter. The cup was won by the US and he felt like being a sportsman and gentleman. Great stuff!

And the entire thing is recapped on the DVD. NOT!! How could such a thing be left out?! In the end it was like the air went out of the entire presentation and made me wish I had not wasted my money!
