Originally, the Ryder Cup was started to honor sportsmanship between the U.S. and the U.K. Todays fans "ugly" behavior makes me cringe when I see them yelling during their opponents swing, yelling that they hope it goes in the tall weeds, applauding when they miss a putt. A disgrace.
If the Europeans exhibit this "ugly" behavior when we visit them, then that is equally shameful.
The real winner should be sportsmanship as Jack Nicklaus did with Tony Jacklin years ago, not who gets to hold the trophy for 2 years.
