WHAT'S AT STAKE?
The TPGL Ryder Cup returns this year in its new re-modeled format – where teams are organized by geographic territories. Held traditionally on the 4th of July and serving as a mid-year break of the TPGL formal competitions, the revamped event features 3-Man teams where the low 2 net balls per hole are counted towards the total score. Last year, South captain Bobby Tafoya led Danny Brown and Gerry Erazmus to victory – by one stroke over the Central Team featuring captain Ray Brehart and Jeff Adams and Mike Scardina.
