Defining Ryder Cup Moment

A key figure in the "Miracle at Medinah" in 2012, Rose's defining moment came in his Sunday Singles match against Phil Mickelson. He dramatically holed a 35-foot putt on the 17th hole to square the match and then won the 18th, completing a stunning comeback victory. This crucial point was a major catalyst in Europe's historic final-day surge to retain the cup.
