Entering the singles matches on Sunday, the competition was even at 8 points each. Jacklin put his best players out early, while U.S. captain [[Jack Nicklaus]] saved his for last.<ref name=jsapo/> In the first match, [[Seve Ballesteros]] was 3 up at the turn but needed an outstanding 3-wood from a fairway bunker on the final hole to salvage par and force a half with [[Fuzzy Zoeller]].<ref name="SeveBunker">{{cite web |url=httphttps://www.tsn.ca/golf/story/?id=406130 |title=Ballesteros' Bunker Shot Among Best From Ryder Cup |publisher=TSN |date=September 26, 2012 |deadurl=no |accessdate=April 22, 2013}}</ref> With ten matches complete and the score at 13 points each, the outcome depended on the two singles matches remaining on the course, between [[José MariaMaría Cañizares]] and [[Lanny Wadkins]] and [[Bernard Gallacher]] and [[Tom Watson (golfer)|Tom Watson]]. The U.S. victory is generally accredited to Wadkins, who hit a wedge to less than three feet (0.9 m) on the par-5 18th hole to win the hole with a birdie and halve his match against Canizares. Gallacher had trailed all day, but Watson bogeyed 16 and was only 1 up with two holes to play. He had another bogey at the par-3 17th, but Gallacher's three-foot putt for bogey missed and ended the match at 2 & 1 and gave the U.S. the winning point.<ref name=ccfcj/><ref name=acviner/><!--<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.golf.com/special-features/ryder-cup-83-close-call-captain-jack |title=Ryder Cup '83: Close Call For Captain Jack |deadurl=no |accessdate=April 22, 2013}}</ref>-->
 
This was the thirteenth13th consecutive win at home for the U.S. team, but they havewould yethave to postwait consecutiveuntil home victories since, alternating losses and wins for a 3–4 record throughthe [[20122021 Ryder Cup|2012]] to post consecutive home victories. It was also the last victory for the U.S. in the Ryder Cup for eight years, until [[1991 Ryder Cup|1991]].
 
PGA National hosted the [[PGA Championship]] in [[1987 PGA Championship|1987]].
 
==Format==
Line 38 ⟶ 52:
*'''Day 2''' — 4 four-ball matches in a morning session and 4 foursome matches in an afternoon session
*'''Day 3''' — 12 singles matches
With a total of 28 points, 14½{{1/2}} points were required to win the Cup. All matches were played to a maximum of 18 holes.
 
==Teams==
The American qualification rules remained unchanged from 1981 with 11 of the team being selected from a points list. The final place in the team was allocated to the winner of the [[1983 PGA Championship]] (which finished on August 7), provided he was not in the top 11, in which case the 12th player in the points list would qualify. Qualification based on the points list finished after the [[Western Open]] on July 3. Tom Watson needed to win the final event to guarantee his place but finished second, lifting him from 14th to 12th place in the points list and pushing [[Hale Irwin]] out of that position.<ref>"Unsure Watson teeters on a tightrope". ''The Times'', Tuesday, July 6, 1983; pg. 26; Issue 61577.</ref> The PGA Championship was won by [[Hal Sutton]] with [[Jack Nicklaus]] second.<ref>"A cub called Sutton follows the tracks of the Golden Bear". ''The Times'', Tuesday, Aug 9, 1983; pg. 18; Issue 61606.</ref> Sutton was only in his third year as a professional and hence ineligible and so Watson retained his place on the team.<ref>"Watson may call off". ''The Times'', Thursday, Aug 4, 1983; pg. 21; Issue 61602.</ref>

The European team was chosen entirely from the [[1983 European Tour]] money list as at the conclusion of the [[St. Mellion Timeshare TPC]] on September 18.<ref>"Money list to decide team for Ryder Cup". ''The Times'', Friday, September 17 1982; pg. 18; Issue 61340.</ref> Prior to the final event 10 of the players had guaranteed their places with [[Manuel Piñero]] in 11th position and Gordon J. Brand in 12th. Brand made sure of his place with fifth place in the TPC but Piñero was overtaken by Paul Way who finished second to lift him to 11th place in the list.<ref>"Ample consolation for Way as he is beaten by Langer". ''The Times'', Monday, September 19 1983; pg. 27; Issue 61641.</ref>
