The 2010 Ryder Cup
Wales is a popular golf destination and with 687 miles of coastline one can imagine the vistas! With many courses to choose from – nearly 200 in fact; favorites include Royal St David’s featured in the Golf Digest Top 100, Cardigan with dramatic clifftop views and Cradoc, where you can enjoy a panorama of the Brecon Beacons.

This year Wales’ golf is especially in the spotlight as team Europe takes on the USA, on the first Ryder Cup course that’s designed for players and spectators. The 2010 Ryder Cup will be played on The Twenty Ten Course at The Celtic Manor Resort in Newport, South Wales from September 28 to October 3. Newport and its surroundings have 45 golf courses alone, including four championship courses.
For those with a BritRail Pass, make your way to Newport Rail Station where there will be a bus shuttle service to The Celtic Manor Resort.
