The 40th Ryder Cup matches were held 26–28 September 2014 in Scotland on the PGA Centenary Course at the Gleneagles Hotel near Auchterarder in Perthshire. This was the second Ryder Cup held in Scotland; it was previously at Muirfield in 1973. The team captains in 2014 were Paul McGinley for Europe and Tom Watson for the USA. Europe were the defending cup holders, having won in 2012 at Medinah Country Club near Chicago. Europe won the 2014 competition to retain the Ryder Cup, defeating the USA by 16½ points to 11½, for their third consecutive win. ==Format== (詳細はRyder Cup is a match play event, with each match worth one point. The competition format was as follows: *Day 1 (Friday) – 4 fourball (better ball) matches in the morning, followed by 4 foursome (alternate shot) matches in the afternoon *Day 2 (Saturday) – 4 fourball matches in the morning, followed by 4 foursome matches in the afternoon *Day 3 (Sunday) – 12 singles matches On the Monday before the competition, European captain Paul McGinley announced that he had chosen to play fourball matches in the mornings, as had been the case for every European home captain since 1997 (while American home captains have chosen to play foursomes in the mornings every year except for 2004). With a total of 28 points available, 14½ points were required for the USA to win the Ryder Cup, and 14 points were required for Europe to retain it. All matches were played to a maximum of 18 holes.
