EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1931, captures the moment when Samuel Ryder, the visionary businessman and founder of the Ryder Cup, shared a light-hearted moment with his cherished daughter, Joan Ryder, and Miss A.M. Pullen. The image, preserved in the Consolidated Archive Holdings Ltd, offers a glimpse into the personal side of a man known for his significant contributions to the world of golf. Samuel Ryder, born in 1858, was a successful businessman who made his fortune in the seed trade. His passion for golf led him to establish the Ryder Cup, an international golf competition between teams from Europe and the United States. The Ryder Cup, which began in 1927, continues to be a cherished tradition in the sport. In this photograph, Ryder is seen with his daughter, Joan, who was born in 1904. The bond between father and daughter is evident as they share a laugh with Miss Pullen. The 1930s, an era of change and progress, provided a backdrop for this heartwarming scene. Ryder's role as a patron, benefactor, and golfing enthusiast is well documented. However, this photograph offers a rare glimpse into the man behind the legend. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of family and the enduring impact of a person's passions, both personal and professional.
