2012 Ryder Cup at Medinah Sterling Cut Glass Decanter with Stopper

Here is a 2012 Ryder Cup at Medinah Sterling Cut Glass Decanter with Stopper. The matches logo is front and center. The 39th Ryder Cup was held September 28–30, 2012, at the Medinah Country Club in Medinah, Illinois, U.S. This was the first time that the Ryder Cup was held in Illinois. Europe went into the competition as the cup holders, the team captains were Davis Love III for the U.S. and José María Olazábal for Europe. At the start of the final day's play, the U.S. led 10–6 and required 4½ points to win; Europe required 8 points to retain the cup and 8½ to win it outright. Europe achieved one of the greatest comebacks in Ryder Cup history by winning eight and tying one of the 12 singles matches. Martin Kaymer's five-foot putt on the 18th hole to defeat Steve Stricker took the score to 14–13, allowing Europe to retain the cup with one match still in progress. Tiger Woods missed a putt on the final green and conceded the hole to Francesco Molinari, halving the final point and securing outright victory for the European team, 14½–13½. The victory was Europe's fifth in the last six contests. The European captain Olazábal dedicated the victory to the late Seve Ballesteros. The European turnaround was nicknamed the "Miracle at Medinah" by media covering the event
