FARMINGDALE, New York (Reuters) -Collin Morikawa is hoping to clean out his Ryder Cup vice captains’ pockets this week at Bethpage Black, as the American enjoys a few days of friendly bets before the competition begins on Friday.

The twice major winner said on Wednesday that vice captains Brandt Snedeker and Kevin Kisner have been keeping spirits high with an array of betting games as the U.S. team prepares to seek revenge after losing to Europe in 2023.

“Sneds is definitely trying to get in our wallet. Kis is talking smack,” Morikawa said on Wednesday.

“I’ve had a lot of prop bets. I’ve had a lot of fairway bets, birdie bets… I’m positive on Sneds. Sneds is the main one that I think we all love to pick on and we love to have him as our bank.”
