This year's Ryder Cup will be special for many reasons, including the fact that one of the members of the American team will be a golfer from the LIV Golf Tour, namely Bryson DeChambeau. The 31-year-old golfer secured his place in the team in a special way, playing brilliantly in major tournaments.
With this performance, DeChambeau opened the way to the American team, but the public is still unsure about him.
Namely, some have a negative attitude towards him since the moment he joined the controversial project, while others, after he opened a YouTube channel, changed their opinion, believing that Bryson is a great person, who has another side of his personality.
Brandel Chamblee, a well-known face on the golf scene, spoke about DeChambeau's role on the team.
The famous face of this sport went back many years, putting an accent on the year 1979, when the competition between Europe and the USA began. Brandel explained that the winner of the first match of the first session was mostly an indication of who will celebrate in this tournament.
Chamblee pointed out how important that session was, referring to DeChambeau's role in the team, while having an interesting question.
“To me it’s how do you pair Bryson DeChambeau? He is an unbelievable golfer but he has been notoriously difficult to pair with.
He has been paired with Phil Mickelson and lost a couple of times, with Woods lost, Scheffler won one of the two ties, so it’s like how do you find someone to play with Bryson DeChambeau?
I think he will lean on in the foursome session, you are going to lean on your best ball strikers. That is what Europe have done very successfully over the course of the Ryder Cup.
So you have to lead with strength and predict who they are going to go out with and match them for strength. You cannot make a mistake in that first session. I just don’t think Keegan Bradley is going to make those mistakes.”- he said, as quoted by The GOlfing Gazette.

Bradley set the roles
The goal of the American captain is to use every player for the right purposes. It is certain that the American captain has at his disposal great individuals who can change the course of this tournament at any moment.
However, he is aware that he will face a serious opponent, with Rory McIlroy, the leader of this generation.
In any case, Keegan has analyzed the situation well and is aware that his team has a good foundation to win this tournament.
