Bryson wants 'tsunami of a crowd' for Ryder Cup at Bethpage

Outside of Rory McIlroy playing in his home country, there might not be another player who brings more noise to a golf course than Bryson DeChambeau.

The two-time U.S. Open champion brought the crowd to life over the weekend at The Open, rebounding from a dismal 78 on Thursday with rounds of 65, 68, and 64 to fly up the leaderboard.

With the major season now complete, the next non-LIV event for DeChambeau is in September at the Ryder Cup, where the U.S. will play host at Bethpage Black, just outside New York.

DeChambeau certainly has the date circled on his calendar, as the Americans look to reclaim the Ryder Cup title after a disappointing loss in Italy two years ago.

"I hope I can bring a lot of energy and a tsunami of a crowd that's going to be rooting for Team USA," DeChambeau told reporters after his final round Sunday.

Although DeChambeau has played on numerous Ryder Cup teams in the past, this year's squad will ask him to take a starring role as one of the top players in the world.

However, DeChambeau wasn't the only golfer with the Ryder Cup in the back of his mind this week at Portrush. DeChambeau said U.S. captain Keegan Bradley left personal notes in some players' lockers.

"It meant a lot," DeChambeau added. "This year is no joke. We're tired of it. We're tired of losing."
