Advice on enjoying Ryder Cup practice round?

So I've never been to a golf tournament and I've got tickets to a Ryder Cup practice round. I don't know what to expect or how to get the most out of it. Any advice?

Re: Advice on enjoying Ryder Cup practice round?

There is usually a place on the course where multiple greens and tees can be viewed. Inquire at the proshop as to where the best viewing may be had. They may also be able to advise on tee times for the players. Couple that with a bit of online research so you can recognize the individual players on the squads and you should have a pleasant experience. Don't know about the Ryder Cup setup, but most pro tournaments have an area behind the 18th green where spectators may obtain autographs. Hope you have a fun time.

Re: Advice on enjoying Ryder Cup practice round?

Ryder Cup practice days are different from other tournaments. 1 team starts at the 10th the other at the 1st. Valhalla has a good few 'switch' holes where it is easy to change matches. I'll be there myself from the Thursday through Sunday.
