Ex-Ryder Cup player dies

Two-time Ryder Cup player Gordon Brand Jr has died at the age of 60, the European Senior Tour announced yesterday. The Scot, who turned professional in 1981, won eight titles on the European Tour, the last of them in 1993, and was part of the European Ryder Cup team in 1987 and 1989. The 1987 triumph represented a historic first victory for Europe on American soil in Ohio, while the cup was retained after a 14-14 tie at the Belfry two years later. A tweet from the European Senior Tour said: “We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Gordon Brand Jnr. Our deepest sympathies are with his family at this time.” Brand won two senior tour titles.
