Ryder Cup 2014: Nespresso Official Coffee Supplier
Nespresso has been announced as the Official Coffee Supplier to the 2014 Ryder Cup at Gleneagles.
The announcement was made during the Nespresso Trophy final in San Sebastian on October 19, where qualifiers met, chatted and played golf with Jose Maria Olazabal in the Nespresso ambassador's home town.
"The Ryder Cup is one of the most prestigious and historic golfing events in the world," said Stephane Detaille, International Sponsoring and Events Manager.
"The matches between the USA and Europe creates worldwide interest way beyond the two competitive continents. No other competition comes close to the emotion, intensity and atmosphere.
"The passion, excellence and winning team spirit that define the Ryder Cup are values which are shared by Nespresso, and, therefore, provide the perfect platform for our partnership.
Nespresso and Olazabal will stage a series of events both prior to the week and during the event itself, bringing unique golf and coffee experiences to the 2014 Ryder Cup.
