PRACTICE TIME IS OVER AS
THE TEAMS BEGIN MATCH PLAY.
THE U.S. TEAM IS LOOKING FOR
REDEMPTION.
Reporter: USA ALL THE WAY.
TEAM USA HAS LOST 8 OF THE LAST
10, BUT THE GROUNDS CREW IS
ALREADY WORKING HARD OUT HERE
OUT AT HAZELTINE.
HAZELTINE HAS PLAY $HOUSE TO SO
MANY GREAT TOURNAMENTS.
LET'S JUST TAKE A LOOK BACK AND
SHOW YOU WHICH ONES THOSE ARE.
FIRST, 19700, 1991, THEN 2001,
2009, TIGER WOODS FINISHED
SECOND IN BOTH OF THOSE.
BUT OF COURSE THIS IS
DIFFERENT.
THIS IS THE RYDER CUP, THIS IS
THE WORLD STAGE.
THE WHOLE WORLD WILL BE
WATCHING.
AND YOU BETTER BELIEVE THERE
WILL BE A LOT OF PEOPLE
WATCHING TODAY.
IT IS DAVIS LOVE III'S TEAM
AGAINST DARREN CLARKE'S TEAM
FOR EUROPE.
UP HAS BEEN DOMINANT IN THIS
TOURNAMENT, WINNING 8 OUT OF
THE LAST 10.
AS FOR MR. LOVE, RED, WHY, AND
BLUE, THE STARS AND STRIPES,
ARE LED BY PHIL MICKELSON.
HE HAS FIVE MAJOR WINS.
DUSTIN JOHNSON AND JIMMY WALKER
HAVE ONE MAJOR.
LET'S HEAR FROM ONE OF MY
FAVORITE GOLFERS JORDAN SPIETH.
I ACTUALLY ASKED FOR A
PICTURE OF THAT, AND IT'S THE
MAIN PIECE OF ARTWORK IN MY
HOUSE, IS RIGHT AFTER I STRUCK
MY FIRST TEE SHOT AT THE RYDER
CUP IN GLEN EAGLES, AND IT'S A
WONDERFUL PAINTING, AND I
TONIGHT HAVE ANYTHING AROUND
THE HOUSE OF MYSELF UP, EXCEPT
FOR THAT, AND IT'S THAT SPECIAL
TO ME.
IT WAS, YOU KNOW, THAT AND THE
18th GREEN OF THE MASTERS.
IT WAS DEFINITELY BENEFICIAL
TO SEE THE GOLF COURSE LAST
WEEK, AND EXCITED FOR THIS
WEEK.
LIKE I SAID, JUST BEING ABLE TO
PLAY ONE AT HOME, IT'S GOT A
GOOD FEEL ALREADY.
SO JASON, I DID GET TO SEE
RICKY FOWLER'SCIOUS THAT HE'S

TEAM ISA GARB, AND A LOT HAVE
SPONSORS, SO HE HAS PUMA HAS
HIS SPONSOR, SO HE HAS SOMEPY
MA HIGH TOPS HE'LL -- SOME PUMA
HIGH-TOPS HE'LL BE BE SPORTING

AND I'LL BET SOON YOU'LL
START TO SEE PEOPLE SHOW UP.
Reporter: THAT'S RIGHT.
AND I HAVE MY USA FLAG.
I'M GOOD.
PRACTICES ADVERTISE TIME IS
OVER AS THE RYDER CUP MATCHES
OFFICIALLY GET UNDER WAY THIS
MORNING.
BUT SO MUCH WORK TO GET THE
COURSE READY.
IT AND LOOKS SO GOOD.
ALI HAS MORE THIS MORNING.
THE CROWD KEEPS GETTING BIGGER,
AND EVEN OUTFITS KEEP GETTING A
LITTLE BITTER, AS WELL, BUT WHO
IS WORKING HARD THIS MORNING.
WELL, THE GROUNDS CREW.
THEY'VE ALREADY BEEN OUT HERE
SINCE WELL BEFORE THAT.
AND CHRIS HAS BEEN JOINING US A
LOT THIS WEEK.
GOOD MORNING, CHRIS, AND THANK
YOU.
TELL ME ABOUT MORE PEOPLE
COMING OUT HERE, MAYBE SOME
GOOD HOLES TO WATCH GOLF THIS
WEEKEND.
WELL, YOU KNOW, THE LAST
FIVE HOMES WERE FLIP-FLOPPED TO
GIVE A MORE COMPETITIVE ENDING.
15 HE HAS A GREAT BLEACHER, AND
YOU HAVE A BIG VIDEO BOARD TO
WATCH THE ACTION ON.
SAME THING ON 16.
REACHABLE PAR 5. WATER IN FRONT
OF THE GREEN.
THERE WILL BE A LOT OF ACTION.
GREAT BLEACHER, A NICE BIG
VIDEO BOARD TO WATCH THE
ACTION.
THEN YOU GO TO THE 17th.
NO BLEACHER, BUT A GREAT PLACE
TO WATCH, AND ANOTHER BIG VIDEO
BOARD.
SO THEY HAVE SET IT UP REALLY
WALL FOR SPECTATORS.
YEAH, WATCHED A LITTLE BIT
OF HOLE 16 YESTERDAY, AND A LOT
OF GUYS WERE GET TO THE GREEN
ON JUST TWO SHOTS, SO A
POSSIBLE BIRDIE OR AGENCY THERE
WILL.
NOW, YOU GUYS CHANGED THE PIN
PLACEMENT THROUGHOUT THE DAY.
WALK US THROUGH HOW THAT WORKS.
KERRY HAGUE FROM THE PGA
CHAMPIONSHIP SETS THAT UP, AND
HE GOES AROUND THE COURSE EACH
NIGHT AND SETS UP THE HOLE
LOCATIONS.
AND EACH MORNING, OUR GUYS GO
OUT, AND THEY'RE LOOK FISCAL
THE DARK FOR A TINY LITTLE
COLORED DOT ON THE GREEN.
THEY DO HAVE A CHEAT SHEET TO
BE ABLE TO FIND IT, BUT IT'S
STILL REALLY HARD.
THEY SPEND LAST TIME LOOKING
FOR IT, AND THEY GO OUT EACH
MORNING AND CHANGE THE HOLE.
AND SO FAR THEY'VE BEEN DOING
IT ONLY MORNING, AND IT STAYS
THERE ALL DAY.
WOW.
A LOT OF PLANNING.
HOW MANY HOURS ARE WE LOOKING
AT AS FAR AS SLEEP?
WELL, FIVE OR SO RIGHT NOW.
HOPEFULLY IT WILL GET ME
THROUGH SUNDAY, AND THEN I CAN
HAVE A GOOD NAP.
Reporter: IT IS GOING TO BE
A GREAT DAY OUT HERE, AND IT IS
