Jamie Donaldson relives his Ryder Cup winning shot
Returning for the first time to the spot at the Perthshire venue from where he struck the winning shot in last year’s Ryder Cup, deadly Donaldson proved it had been no fluke by hitting it to six feet with his first attempt then half that distance with the next one.
Twenty-eight yards on and five in from the right, it was the same pin position Donaldson, one of the rookies in the European team, took aim at in his singles match against Keegan Bradley and struck a majestic blow to a foot, ensuring victory for Paul McGinley’s men in a match they went on to win 16½-11½.
