Darren Clarke Will Be Representing Europe In The Ryder Cup 2016

The Northern Ireland’s Darren Clarke was selected by a 5 man panel to represent Europe in the 2016 Ryder Cup that will be happening at Hazeltine, Jackpot Bet Online United States. He will be the man in front of the Spaniard Miguel Angel Jimenez and the Dane Thomas Bjorn. There are four tournaments under Clarke’s name as a player, and Jackpot Bet Online vice-captain in 2010 and 2012. The winner of the 2011 Open Championship at Royal St George's has lost just once in the seven times he has been involved in the Ryder Cup, the defeat at Brookline in 1999.

After a quartet of victories as a player - in 1997, 2002, 2004 and 2006 - Clarke helped successive captains Colin Montgomerie and Jackpot Bet Online Jose Maria Olazabal achieve success. Clarke said: "I am lucky to have played and worked under some fantastic captains in my seven Ryder Cups to date and I look forward to the challenge of trying to follow in their footsteps and help Europe to a fourth consecutive Ryder Cup victory at Hazeltine next year." The memorable win under Olazabal in 2012 became known as the Miracle of Medina after Europe fought back from 10-6 down going into the final day's singles to win 14½-13½ on US soil.
