Ryder Cup 2010
Ryder Cup 2010 var den 38. udgave af Ryder Cup, som er en holdkonkurrence i golf mellem USA og Europa. Turneringen foregik fra den 1. til den 4. oktober 2010 på Celtic Manor Resort i Newport, Wales. USA var forsvarende mestre efter sejr i 2008-turneringen på hjemmebane.
Europa vandt turneringen med den mindst mulige sejrsmargen, nemlig 14½ point mod 13½. Turneringen blev den første udgave af Ryder Cup nogensinde til først at blive afgjort om mandagen, idet dårligt vejr i flere omgange havde forsinket turneringen, der efter planen skulle have været afsluttet søndag eftermiddag.
Der var ikke, i modsætning til i 2008-turneringen, nogen danskere blandt spillerne, men Thomas Bjørn fungerede som vice-kaptajn på det europæiske hold.

The Flag of Europe is the flag and emblem of the European Union (EU) and Council of Europe (CoE). It consists of a circle of 12 golden (yellow) stars on a blue background. It was created in 1955 by the CoE and adopted by the EU, then the European Communities, in the 1980s.
The CoE and EU are distinct in membership and nature. The CoE is a 47-member international organisation dealing with human rights and rule of law, while the EU is a quasi-federal union of 27 states focused on economic integration and political cooperation. Today, the flag is mostly associated with the latter.
It was the intention of the CoE that the flag should come to represent Europe as a whole, and since its adoption the membership of the CoE covers nearly the entire continent. This is why the EU adopted the same flag. The flag has been used to represent Europe in sporting events and as a pro-democracy banner outside the Union.
