"This will be 50,000-plus a day, and you can't go back to when it was 15,000 or 20,000 per day. You can't. It won't go backwards."
/Matty G interviews Sir Terry Matthews, developer of Celtic Manor, trying his best to get the uber-dullard billionaire to say something interesting. This did catch my eye:
Assuming this is a successful Ryder Cup, and certainly I don't know what more I could have done to make it a success, so let's assume it is a successful venture for Wales, and the game, and the European Tour, and the PGA Tour, well, what about the next Ryder Cup? The next one over here is in Scotland, and there is no doubt in my mind that this Cup will set the standard, whether it is numbers of people coming, or for facilities for media, etc., it will set the standard. As you go forward every four years, well every two years if you include the ones in the U.S., the numbers are going to go up. This will be 50,000-plus a day, and you can't go back to when it was 15,000 or 20,000 per day. You can't. It won't go backwards.
50,000 a day? At a Ryder Cup, with a maximum of four groups on the course at a time. Sounds like a real spectating joy!
