Ryder Cup Europe has invited the countries bidding to host the 2018 event to a symposium in London next month to evaluate their progress.
France, Germany, Holland, Portugal, Spain and Sweden are competing for the right host the 42nd edition of the famous tournament between Europe and the United States.
They will meet with the 2018 Ryder Cup bid committee on January 13 and European Ryder Cup director Richard Hills said: “This is as thorough an evaluation process as we have ever embarked upon in determining a Ryder Cup host nation and venue.
“The 2018 Ryder Cup bid committee is in the process of visiting each country, providing them with the opportunity to showcase their bid in their own environment.
In addition, we felt that bringing the six nations together for a symposium would provide all involved with a forum at which opinion, information and questions can be shared.
“We have already been impressed by the level of commitment and the clarity of the bids and we are keen to ensure that by providing additional information to all parties at one time, they will leave London even better placed to further develop their individual tenders.
“We believe that with little more than three months remaining from the time of the symposium to the submission of bids, this is a positive step on the pathway to the eventual announcement in 2011 of the host nation and venue for 2018.”
The deadline for the submission of bids is April 30, 2010.
