Reed: Paying US stars to play in Ryder Cup is not necessary
PATRICK REED says paying the US Ryder Cup team is “unnecessary” as the LIV Golf star claimed: “There are certain events where money means absolutely nothing”.
American players will be paid for the first time at Bethpage Black this month with a £170,462 “stipend” added to a £300,000 donation to charity.
European captain Luke Donald (left) has stated he is “100 percent” against paying his team and said: “The Ryder Cup represents true sport.”
And Rory Mcllroy admitted before the US announcement last year: ‘I personally would pay for the privilege to play in the Ryder Cup’
Reed, 35, was dubbed ‘Captain America’ after his three feisty Ryder Cup appearances, starting with his shushing the Scottish crowd at Gleneagles in 2014.
