Two of the stand-out successes from the sporting season will be celebrated in special new documentaries this December on Sky Sports Golf.
The golfing calendar produced history-making major winners and a record-breaking Ryder Cup during a memorable 2021, while two of the highlights came at the Betfred British Masters and the Solheim Cup.
Richard Bland’s long-awaited first DP World Tour victory and Catriona Matthew guiding Team Europe to more Solheim Cup success have been recognised in new 30-minute programmes, with both available on Sky Sports Golf and Sky Sports On Demand over the festive period.
Portrait of a Captain: Catriona
Matthew became the first European captain to win back-to-back Solheim Cups and just the second to win on American soil, as she guided her side to a 15-13 victory in Ohio.
The new programme reflects on Matthew’s Solheim Cup success as a player, having been a European stalwart throughout the 21st century, with the Scot also sharing untold stories from her two stints as captain.
Matthew reveals details about her captaincy approach and how she masterminded successive Solheim Cup victories, plus explains untold storylines from the career in the biennial contest.

Richard Bland: 478
Bland became the oldest first-time winner in Tour history with his dramatic play-off victory at The Belfry, where the 48-year-old defeated Guido Migliozzi at the first extra hole to secure his breakthrough title in his 478th start.
The new programme sees Bland head back to The Belfry to reminisce about his maiden Tour victory and describe the struggles he has faced on his long and difficult journey to the winner’s circle.
Bland reflects on the near-misses and why he feels it took him so long to claim that elusive win, plus talks about his work with Tim Barter, his new-found confidence in his game, and his hopes for the remainder of his career.
