The Revolution
Bernhard Langer's wiener schnitzel changed everything. Champions began expressing their identity through food, from Sandy Lyle's haggis to Tiger's cheeseburgers.

The Modern Era
Global cuisines, ambitious menus, and cultural celebration. From Matsuyama's sushi to Rahm's Basque tapas, the dinner became a culinary stage.
