“It will be rude” – Robert Macintyre says his dollar accounts will be thrown into his face, and the enemy audience will only add fuel to the TEAM Europe fire as he will keep Ryder Cup in New York this September.
On WM Phoenix last weekend Open, Former Macintyre Makeup player threw the Oban Celtic T -shirts – driven by his father, Dougie – carefully made a bundle and tied a rubber band in a tumultuous crowd. There was $ 20 around each of them and a note signed in which he reads: “Get yourself a few beers. Long live, B MAC.”
Despite the good -natured rush, Macintyre is now worried that even if he throws $ 100 in a crowd at this year’s Ryder Cup on Bethpage Black, he will be thrown straight into his face.
Macintyre made the PGA Tour break through the RBC Canadian Open last June and supported him with a great victory at Genesis Open a few weeks later.
The 28-year-old, who made his debut at Ryder Cup 2023, hopes to be involved in Captain Luke Donald’s team as they want to defend the crown they won last time in Rome in what will be the first victory from any of any team From ‘Wonders of Medinah’ in 2012.
Asked if he might have to raise Ante by throwing bigger bills in the expected crowd at Bethpage Black, Macintyre joked: “I think it’s more the other way around. That will come to us. But no, look, it will be good.
“I think when the guys get there, we have to embrace it. It will be rude, but if you play well and you can bring them energy and from yourself, then you just have to try and enjoy as much as you can.
“That’s all I do. I had it in Canada when I said probably 63 holes, I had Canadians on my side because I was left -handed. I was one of them because I was left. The players play golf and they are left.
“When I got into the back in Phoenix, he switched a little. Someone was thrown out because of things that yelled at me. I just think you can channel it and bring it and use it as a fuel on fire. We have some of the best players in Europe and I hope we’ll enjoy it. “
European golf at high
European players won three of the last four events on the PGA tour, and Thomas Detry won the Phoenix after Sepp Straka landed at American Express and then Rory Mcilroy sealed the victory at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.
“I think it’s great,” Macintyre said. “It is very obvious to see that it has been on a large standard for several years.
“It doesn’t surprise me, to be honest with you, when you look at the strength and depth of European guys here and I just think it’s good for the European golf and a DP tour to see progress. I mean, this did it in the same way as I did it.

“And once I realized that not to react so much to a shot, not to react so much to things that were said, not to respond to things that annoy me, because the same things still annoy me when I am here. Nothing is different from last year the things that annoy me.

“Everyone in my team is stacked in the same way. And that’s all I can look for, because if someone says, jump, it’s like you want to jump high, I’ll jump as high as you want.
“And that’s the same on the whole board. I asked Mike to do something. If he succeeds, he will do it. If he can’t, well, give the best blow.
“I was in the gym yesterday with Kenny and one hour at home and helps me make my dreams come true.
“Do you know what I mean? It’s not just one guy. As Simon is here this week. It’s not just one guy trying to make a dream come true.
