Ryder Cup Ratings Up!

Pretty impressive considering the competition from the NFL and MLB.

From Tod Leonard's golf column:

The Ryder Cup is one event that got a bump in television ratings despite not having Woods. The national overnight Nielsen rating for NBC's six-hour Sunday telecast was 3.7, up 22 percent from the final day in '06, when the U.S. got blown out early in the morning (U.S. time) in Ireland.
