I agree about the fact that others make money from it. I think you will find the players already get compensated…maybe not directly. I guarantee they probably get their uniforms, accomadation (for them and their families,caddies etc), food, excursions all paid for. They won’t be spending a penny. Not only hat but judging by the stories I have seen they get a Miriam of very expensive gifts for the pleasure of playing so excuse me if I don’t feel sorry they don’t get directly paid. Total BS by the American players if u ask me. No pride in playing for their country which is why they have been struggling to win in recent years……. #justsaying

"Pounced on the Opportunity " ....."Opportunistic " ........or alternatively just gave honest answers to questions that they were asked about in relation to a significant change to a tournament that they feel passionate about. I have no issue with the American players wanting to get paid for playing in the Ryder Cup, be nice if some of that money did make its way to some charitable causes that the players support however no need to deflect the negativity of this on to the European team. All these players are already Multi Millionaires and as older golf fan I see nothing wrong with players for one week every two years playing for something slightly bigger than the mighty dollar particularly when they are so overly compensated for the other 103 weeks. I think the European Players comments sting a little because as fans of the USA Ryder Cup Team you know they are right. All we hear from the mens professional game is ....greed, money, I want more, that's not enough, give me more and its becoming a little tiresome to be honest. It's certainly an interesting take to defend the greed of already rich people demanding more while criticising those looking to compete for something greater than their own financial gain. Always good content and enjoy what you do but do feel you are way off the mark with this one.

My thoughts and I know I am one of the first. I understand the charity’s. Bottom line. It doesn’t matter if you doing the Olympics for team USA or Golf. If you playing for your country. PLAY FOR TOUR COUNTRY PERIOD. let everything work itself out. Do you know how people would be in the position to represent their country. ??? Bottom line just play if it about pay don’t do it. It shows the person you are. People may disagree and that is fine. Just my thoughts and I leave comments a lot. Sorry not sorry for offering anyone!
