Team Cup

But it's Matt Wallace, the Englishman who has been on the outside of those teams year after year after year.

He's played in the Team Cup, which is this hit and giggle exhibition that the European Tour puts on in the beginning of every Ryder Cup year.

He's played in that a couple different times.

It's supposed to prepare you to be on the Ryder Cup.

It's, it's just fighting for every last inch you can get and, like, it's just in the Europeans as a culture, as a mentality, anyone that's in and around that team room that's in and around.

And it starts from the team cup that they do, you know, the old Seve Trophy and stuff like that, getting them together a little bit more.

It's, it's more getting these lads used to what's expected in the week of a Ryder Cup, not, and not the golf side of things.

It's the... 'Cause it, you're just opening up.

I'm a fan.

And it'll be interesting to see on the Ryder Cup chats, because Luke Donald was, that was his first spin around when he made the decision with Molinari and, and those guys on the stats to pick Ludvig ahead of Morank at the time.

Um, you know, you did hear rumors around that time that, 'cause I know he did play the Team Cup earlier in the year, and you hear stuff on tour around, like, that Morank did himself no favors at that, like being late to meetings and not, uh, not being all in in the whole team environment, and not treating it with the seriousness that some of the other younger guys did, and kind of took it a bit for granted that he was winning a couple of times on tour and, "I'm, I'm gonna progress anyway," type thing.

And I think that could've went against him at the time, not that anyone would admit that or, uh, things, but y- I, I think emotionally his career has taken a different shift.
