00:00 Ludwig's driving, you know, he was the few tournaments he played on the PGA Tour
00:05 was number one driver in all of golf ahead of Rory McIlroy, ahead of Scotty
00:10 Scheffler in the rankings. So we know driving is important this week and in
00:16 foursomes if you're in the short stuff it's gonna make life a lot easier. I
00:20 think John feeds off a playing partner with similar kind of fire and
00:26 passion. You know, he wants to feel like he's out there with a teammate
00:30 that's really engaged with him and John Tyrrell really fits that bill. John was
00:36 really inspired by the Ryder Cup back in 97, the first ever time he came and got
00:41 into golf was because of going to the Ryder Cup at Valorama. You know, his
00:46 legacy is not just about winning majors, it's about playing in Ryder Cups and
00:51 making a difference and contributing to Team European wins.
00:54 Could I just ask as well, will you be using all 12 players on the first day do you think?
00:59 That's my plan right now but plans can change.
