00:00This is his arena, you know?

00:02If he, like, views himself as, like, a gladiator golfer,

00:04like, this is as good as it gets.

00:13Being on the Ryder Cup for a winning team and a losing team,

00:15experiencing both the highs and the lows,

00:17and then missing in Rome, this has put something in my stomach

00:22that's kind of made it a mission project for me.

00:27Just his ability, his golfing ability alone,

00:30is an X factor for our team.

00:32But also, he's a really fiery player.

00:35And, you know, when you come to a Ryder Cup,

00:38you don't want guys to try to be something they're not.

00:40We have a lot of calm, mellow guys.

00:42So, you know, we need the energy from Bryson.

00:44I was telling Keegan, I was like, I feel like Bryson

00:46could be, like, the difference for us in a strange way

00:49from the standpoint of feeding into these fans,

00:53the style of golf he plays.

00:54Obviously, a great player.

00:57Explosive is a great word for how he plays.

00:59I've always enjoyed Bryson, and it's been really cool

01:03getting to kind of pick his brain this week.

01:05I think he's done a huge job of trying

01:07to insert himself on this team.

01:09And, you know, given his personality and his brand,

01:14he's great with the fans.

01:16I think that's going to be a huge attribute

01:17to the team this week.

01:19He's a tremendously popular player, obviously a huge talent,

01:22big personality.

01:23The people love him, and I think he's loved on our team as well.

01:27So it's fun to see him kind of in his element out there,

01:30you know, getting the people going.

01:32It's really cool to kind of learn from every guy

01:34and how they think about, think their way around golf courses.

01:39And, yeah, Bryson's just an example of one that's maybe a little bit

01:42more unique than the rest of the teammates.

01:43I'm glad he's on our side.

01:45You know, he's a showman out there.

01:47I think he's going to get the crowd fired up.

01:49And, you know, it's really great any time he's on these teams

01:53because he's such a fantastic player.

01:55He's a multiple-time U.S. Open winner,

01:57and, you know, that means a lot to him.

01:59And being an American, I think, means a lot to him as well.

02:01And I'm excited to kind of unleash him this week.

02:05I want to be a part of this team and be the most helpful person

02:09I can for this team in whatever way possible that is.

02:13I love you.

02:15I love you.

02:16I love you.
