""Besides the fact that they're both phenomenal players, they bring a spark to our team," Bradley said. "Bryson has been an incredible teammate in the locker room, and we really want him to lead our team out with Justin in the first match. "With foursomes, you definitely have to factor in personalities, but golf ball's really important as well.""
""We want to start strong," Donald said. "Obviously, we know that in match play, you've got to get off to a good start. "But these guys have a lot of success together. Jon is 4-0 in foursomes, and Tyrrell with him 2-0 from Rome a couple years ago. So they know how to win. They're a strong partnership. They get along very well and we're very happy to send them out first.""
