Keegan Bradley on New York City Ryder Cup crowds: 'They're going to be loud'
Briefly

Keegan Bradley is the U.S. Ryder Cup captain with a deep familiarity with Bethpage Black, emphasizing the importance of the location to local golfers. He highlights the passionate connection locals have with the course and their pride in representing America. With six automatic qualifiers settled, he faces the challenge of selecting the remaining six team members. Bradley acknowledges the difficulty of informing players who do not make the team and expresses excitement for the upcoming Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black, set for September 23-28. He associates the American spirit with Ralph Lauren uniforms.
"I think going to St. John's and being on Long Island, being in Queens, has really taught me how important Bethpage is to the locals here in New York City and on Long Island. They're passionate about their golf course. They're passionate about America. They're going to be loud and proud and I look forward to that."
"Our team needs to represent the qualities that Bethpage has. Regardless of where the international tournament is held, it's a high-pressure environment. The intensity is similar to what players experience in majors. But this is another step up."
"There's nothing more American than Ralph Lauren and the red, white and blue."
