FARMINGDALE, N.Y. -- Golf fans won't have to wait long to watch Bryson DeChambeau at the 45th Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black on Friday.
The two-time U.S. Open champion will partner with Justin Thomas in the first match of foursomes (alternate shot) at 7:10 a.m. ET on Friday. They'll face the European duo of Spain's Jon Rahm and England's Tyrrell Hatton .
"Besides the fact that they're both phenomenal players, they both bring a spark to our team," U.S. team captain Keegan Bradley said of DeChambeau and Thomas. "Bryson has been an incredible teammate in the locker room, and we really want him to lead our team out with Justin in the first match."
Hatton and Rahm went 2-0 in foursomes in the last Ryder Cup, which the Europeans won 16½-11½ at Marco Simone Golf & Country Club outside R
