Wanna Phone: (615) 591-4544 Facsimile: (615) 595-0563 Email: [email protected] Crown Vic Making Golf History to Sell at America’s Auto Auction, Chicago A 2005 Crown Victoria with an unusual place in golf history will cross the auction block later this month at America’s Auto Auction, Chicago. An unmarked police vehicle being retired by the Village of Lombard, Illinois, the car figured prominently in the final day of competition during the 2012 Ryder Cup at nearby Medinah Country Club, when deputy police chief Pat Rollins whisked European golfer Rory McIlroy to the golf course with just minutes to spare before his tee-time. McIlroy’s 20-minute ride in the Crown Vic made the difference between Team Europe’s win and loss. The 2012 Ryder Cup, held in September, was one for the record books as the best comeback cup in the event’s 85-year history. The Europeans were down 10-6 going into the final day of play, and the US team required only 4-1/2 points to take the championship. By the end of the tournament, Europe had scored 14-1/2 points to the US team’s 13-1/2 points to win, a slim margin of victory that would have vanished but for McIlroy’s trip to the golf course, courtesy of the Lombard police department and the Crown Vic. A two-time major champion and the #1-ranked player in the world, McIlroy thought his tee-time was at 12:25 on the last day of the competition.
