The anticipation for this year’s Ryder Cup on the shores of Lake Michigan is greater than normal.
The pandemic forced the postponement of the 43rd biennial battle between the United States and Europe, originally scheduled for Sept. 25-27 at Whistling Straits in Wisconsin. Twelve of the best American and European male golfers will now play Sept. 24-26, 2021, still at Whistling Straits.
Ryder Cup officials previously said they anticipated hiring around 1,300 people to work the event. This is similar to historical Ryder Cup numbers.
