2012 Ryder Cup winning Captain and Nespresso Golf Ambassador, José María Olazábal has spoken exclusively to Nespresso, the Official Coffee Supplier to The 2014 Ryder Cup, about his favourite Ryder Cup memories throughout his career.
Nespresso presented José María with a picture book of his Ryder Cup journey through the years; from his first tournament at Muirfield Village in Ohio in 1987 to his successful captaincy of the triumphant European 2012 Ryder Cup team in Medinah, Illinois – and watched his reactions as he relived each moment.
With a glittering Ryder Cup career record of 18 wins, five halves and eight losses, José María spoke about what The Ryder Cup meant to him and how it felt to be captain of Europe in one of the greatest golf tournaments in the world. He also delivered an exclusive message to those players who will be fortunate enough to be involved this time around at Gleneagles.
He said: “Looking through Nespresso’s picture book it was great re-living those magical moments down the years. It reminded me just how special and unique the tournament is and I can’t wait for The 2014 Ryder Cup to get started.
“So to the twelve of you. Thank you very much and good luck this time at Gleneagles.”
A bespoke Nespresso Coffee Bar boutique will be set up in Gleneagles for The 2014 Ryder Cup giving golf fans the chance to sample some of Nespresso’s finest coffee as they visit the tournament.
