I was 14 in 1985 and I don’t think I’d ever watched golf before. My abiding memory is Sam holing the putt on 18 with Peter Alliss’ commentary. As Torrance lined it up he said, “Wouldn’t it be marvellous if he rolled it in.” And then as it tracked towards the hole: “It’s not a million miles away is it?” and it dropped in. I was in tears at the time and it still gives me a lump in my throat no matter how many times I’ve seen it. I’ve been a golf fan (and a frustrated player) ever since.

Absolute legend is Sam, that voice)( should narrate all Golf Documentaries. The little tear forming at the end, the Capatain's fatherly pride. Team sport is such a wonderful gift...

I met Sam during this week. My pal and I got his autograph, my pal couldn't get the top off his pen, Sam said (in jest) 'You're hopeless, i hope my team aren't as nervous as you are'. LOL, I ribbed my pal for years, calling him hopeless at every opportunity. What a great week, I saw it all, happy memories, ditto for 2010, all seven days there. Beating the Yanks, so sweet.

more than golf...one of the best people on the planet

Sam is a genuine treasure of European golf. Love the guy.

Loved Sam's dad....he was the real golf expert!

The first comment was Trevino was an amazing Captain. This one story put us one up even before we tee'd off. At the dinner Wednesday night at the N.E.C. Trevino introduced his whole team and told everyone at the dinner how much career money each player had made, which was obviously much more than us Europeans had made. Tony Jacklin then got up and said "thank you Lee for that great introduction of the US Team but actually we are not playing for any money this week and have never done so in any Ryder Cup" We all giggled and then Tony said " but I'd like to introduce Sandy Lyle, Open Champion, Bernard Langer, Masters Champion and Seve Ballesteros, past Open and Masters Champion. Trevino had no come back, he had to stay quiet and Tony put us 1 up.

What a fantastic video! Sam Torrance almost had me in tears - his passion was palpable!

This is brilliant. Sam is brilliant - thank you!

6:31 One of my favourite moments in golf.

Lovely video , Sam is so emotional , memories he will treasure forever

I was there on the Sunday in 2002 and it was absolutely awesome! Thank you Sam, for the memories you and the boys created.

Thank you, Mr Sam Torrence

Such a wonderful passionate man.heart is definitely on his sleeve, Sam you are a legend of the wonderful game of golf, the Ryder cup stirs up everything that is good in the game, always a wonderful week, roll on September.

thanks Ryder Cup media/social team for this!!! Wonderful content.

Wow, he did that many RC's. Respect!

Fabulous, what a good build up for what’s to come very soon 🙏

Absolutely..fucking..brilliant

Sam’s 22 foot or 25 foot putt,depends what paper you read , was made with a putter borrowed from my brother-in-law Jimmy Shannon. Sam had his clubs stolen a couple of weeks before the 85 Ryder Cup. He figured that replacing the woods and irons was not a problem as the they could be duplicated and he had some time to get used to them but he was fond of his putter and Wilson had stopped making the in 1962/63,so he could not replace it.Sam was talking to the head pro at Gleneagles and told him of his problem and described the putter,make and model and the pro said I know someone who has the same club,lt was my brother-in-law who was a member at Gleneagles.The pro called Jimmy and asked if Sam could borrow the club to play in the Ryder Cup,Jimmy said you bet and rest is history.

Great guy, fantastic ball striker, his tee shot on 18 was amazing, and he is a excellent commentator, cheers 🥂 big Sam 😉 👍

Sam and his dad bob are legends, can remember watching sam back in the day, and bob was a great coach used to watch him and padraig for ages on the range at Wentworth. In my opinion these were the golden days for Europe, and the top european golfers actually played on our tour, now theirs no cohesion the top Europeans play full time pretty much in America, and the team pick is now from what i consider not the best of the best, victor hovland is no. 17 in the ryder cup standings this is a joke, he has to be a pick, because of mcilroy going to the pga so early in his career it has destroyed our tour, and i cant see us competing against the Americans again at that standard, of the 80s and 90s

Great editing. Sam is up there as one of the best Europe Captains since Seve, much better than Faldo anyway 😅

Met sam a few years ago and definitely caught him on an off day , he was surprisingly ignorant, didnt expect it .

I still do not understand why you put your best players last on Sunday. You risk losing momentum and there is a chance the points at the end don’t even matter.

Trevino was an amazing captain he didn't give a shit 💩

The world has changed since Sams RC days. Today both teams play together on the US tour so the rivalry is simulated. As a proud European I no longer care who wins because I already know the winner is the PGA tour.

Best voice ever
