An International Feast
The Ryder Cup, which will be held at Le Golf National on September 25-30, 2018, isn’t the only international competition heading to France next year. The French-American Challenge for Fred’s Cup, contested since 1990, pits teams of men and women amateurs from the MGA/WMGA and the Ligue de Paris. It will take place at around the same time, and intrepid golf travelers will be able to enjoy both the drama of the Ryder Cup and the intimacy of the French-American Challenge in a single trip.
