455: In 1969, The Ryder Cup teetered on the brink of irrelevancy, and perhaps being discontinued. But the historic "Concession" offered by Jack Nicklaus to Tony Jacklin on the final hole at Royal Birkdale changed everything. Author Neil Sagebiel returns (#353 & #354) to discuss at length his latest book "Draw In The Dunes: The 1969 Ryder Cup and the Finish That Shocked the World".
