Oxfordshire,
7th May - Ryder Cup profits, estimated to be £4 million,
should be divided between all the PGAs of Europe said Berhard Langer
in an appeal to the PGA on the eve of the Benson & Hedges International
Open at the Oxfordshire Golf Club.
The Swedish,
Irish, German and Italian Professional Golfers Associations should
all receive money from the Ryder Cup, and it is time for the Professional
Golfers Association which own s the event and splits the profit
with the PGA European Tour to consider the mood of the European
players.
"Ever
since continental players became part of the Ryder Cup, part of
the money should go to other PGAs," said Langer. "I have
recommended as much to the tour, I don't know whether they will
listen to me or not, but all the other continental players think
the same. It is commen sense and I hope it happens sooner rather
than later", he said.
