FARMINGDALE, New York :Golf fans might experience a sense of deja vu when Denmark's Rasmus Hojgaard makes his Ryder Cup debut this week at Bethpage Black, two years after twin brother Nicolai was part of the victorious Europe team.

Hojgaard is the only Ryder Cup rookie with the away team but comes with a familiar face and name in Farmingdale, New York - so much so that even his teammates have been seeing double.

"Shane (Lowry) sometimes just calls me 'Nicolai'. And then he's like, 'Oh, Rasmus is here'," he said.

"It's all right. It is what it is. I'm used to it. I've been used to it for 20 years now. So it doesn't really bother me."
