00:00Justin Rose takes aim, says Team USA is trying too hard, ahead of 2025 Ryder Cup.

00:07The Ryder Cup rivalry just got a little spicier, and England's Justin Rose is fanning the flames.

00:14As Team Europe arrived in New York for a three-day mission at Bethpage Black, Rose critiqued the U.S. team.

00:19He declared their forced chemistry in forming a great team isn't effective.

00:24Instead, Rose pointed to something deeper.

00:27Legacy, identity, and culture pass down through the European squad like a sacred torch.

00:32Being a great team is having a kind of a real good theme, and having an identity that has come from players before you, he explained.

00:39You all buy into that vision.

00:42This isn't just a philosophical debate.

00:44It critiques the U.S. handling of its Ryder Cup business.

00:47Earlier, Team USA announced $500,000 per player, marking the first compensation in the Cup's 98-year history.

00:55Although $300,000 goes to charity, optics stumble.

01:00Rose acknowledges Bradley's closest team sentiments, but isn't convinced.

01:05Europe is a bit more natural and organic, Rose said.

01:08I think it comes from deeper roots.

01:11The contrast couldn't be more stark.

01:13While U.S. stars emphasize unity through friendship, Rose argues Europe thrives on representing something bigger than yourself.

01:22This culture reflects in pairings.

01:25In Rome, Rose paired with rookie Bob McIntyre, chosen for strategy, not friendship.

01:31Emotions run high as Team Europe braces for the New York crowd.

01:35Rory McIlroy mentioned VR training, but Jon Rahm admitted it pales against reality.

01:40Rose?

01:41He's ready for the storm.

01:42New Yorkers are crazy, he said with a smirk.

01:45They become caricatures of themselves.

01:48I fully expect absolute chaos out there.

01:52But in a classic veteran move, he flipped the script.

01:55The louder the crowd, the easier it is to tune out.

01:58There comes a point where it just becomes noise.

02:01I'm hoping it fades into just chaos and noise.

02:04The Ryder Cup showdown kicks off September 26th to 28th.

02:08And if Rose's comments are any indication, it's going to be a brawl of golf, grit, and very little love lost.
