They were the most nice words from the new Netflix season Full paceand for a good reason.
They were too final wordComing to the 52nd minute of the last episode of the season.
“I will be criticized as captain next year. They will underestimate me, ”said Keyan Bradley, eyes full of fire, in the American team room right after a The emotional presidents cup wins. “They will doubt me. I’ve been suspected all my life. That’s when I do my best job. ”
And then the big swing, of the end of the season.
“We will go to Bethpage to hit their F -!”
Bradley’s words were triumphant, and they set a call point at the end of a third season differently successful for the Netflix series, who spent the first week after starting on the Top 10 List of the broadcast giant. They were also surprising: typically Ryder Cup captains are fond of discovering nothing This can provide a competitive spark for their opponents, let alone a statement equal to combating words in front of television cameras for a platform that serves 300 million people.
Apparently, Bradley’s words were surprising to him as well. After an excellent round of opening 69 at Arnold Palmer Invitational on Thursday afternoon, the US Ryder Cup captain suggested that he was also caught by guard by his Netflix language from inside the closet.
“Listen. I thought I was in a locker room with my team,” Bradley said. “You know, this is what happens in a closet room. I didn’t think about disrespect for Europeans. That was a time we had just won the Cup of Presidents, I was in the closet room and it was my turn to turn to the team. And I didn’t think about disrespect, I was talking more with our boys.”
Bradley was understandable eager to remove any controversial flames from his comments – especially if they were, as he said, intended to remain private.
“I was a little surprised, yes,” Bradley said. “But again, I have to know that on this day and age, especially with mobile phones, everything is being recorded.”
Of course, it’s easy to get Bradley with his word. For one thing, there have been decades of the Ryder Cup captains that avoid provocations. For another, Bradley has created a reputation as one of the most thoughtful speakers of golf. Is different from him to download ANYONELeaving it in a group whose ears will spend the next six months looking for even a small public coloring.
“I mean, maybe (the scene may have provided the Boueth Board material for Europeans),” he said. “I don’t think Europeans need more motivation to win the Ryder Cup. They are a special group of players and the Ryder Cup means a lot to them. And when the Ryder Cup year and when the Ryder Cup comes together, they really seem to come together and play their best golf. So I think they are motivated enough to beat us.”
The good news for Bradley is that there will be many moments of the newsletter board in the coming months. Ryder Cup years have that effect on pros players. Sometimes, too, in their captains.
“This is who I am. That’s me I’m a very excited person, “Bradley said.” I’m very excited about the Ryder Cup. I think my enthusiasm for the Ryder Cup showed there. It was meant for our team. You know, again no disrespect for other boys. “
Right now, Bradley is happy to let the Ryder Cup fight 2025 with a false start … and perhaps a canceled Netflix.
