Napa, caliph. – On Monday, like you and practically everyone else, Jj Spaun was again in Grind.
With shorts and an unbroken polo, he looked everything the mill. To the left of the 11th green in Silverado Resort, loaded with trees, supported by the mountain in the north, he opened short, then tall balls, over and over. Outside some minor scams and the efforts of some woodpeckers, the noise was small. Adam Schriber, his coach, looked nearby. After a while, playing partners David LipskyRico hoey and In Reava passed to 12 but clipYour newest US Open winner, hanging back, still hitting.
A few meters away, along with Caddy Mark Carens, Spaun’s bag sat down.

Welcome to ChampionshipA September Tour tournament that is also doing business as a de facto training camp for the US Ryder Cup team. When the next Monday comes, Americans will only be one week from the beginning of this two -year meeting with Europeans in Bethpage Black. But this week, they work.
Keep it.
A training camp? In golf?
What are they doing here?
And it is Bryson dechambeauThe only non-PGA Tour member on the US Ryder Cup team will appear?
Below are those questions. And more. With some answers.
Why are you making this US Ryder Cup team?
Two main reasons.
Before Ryder’s last cup, two years ago in Marco Simone in Italy, Europeans oppressed Americans, 16.5-11.5-and all 12 euros played two weeks before the event, while only two Americans played in two weeks.
At the time since then, American inaction has been questioned, including one of the members of this team. In last year’s process, which was played two weeks before the event of the President of the Cup, Wyndham clark There was this exchange with a reporter, with the reporter’s question in Italy:
2025 ProCore Championship: TV Program, Broadcasting Information, How to Look, Times Times
Kevin Cunningham
Last year going to Ryder Cup, there was a big gap on vacation. Did you feel a little unprepared and did this affect your decision to come to play this week?
“One hundred percent, that’s why I’m here,” Clark said. “Last year, it was actually four weeks, and then with the time you tied it to play, it was the fifth week, so it’s five weeks. I mean, I would never prepare for a big event, where I had five weeks of rest in the middle of the other I’m sorry, I’m not sharp in the tour now.
“But surely, I felt like many of us were not prepared. This year for the Cup of Presidents, it’s less time, but I didn’t want to do it again. So if it’s something I do myself or I hope the USA will do some kind to do it, I think everyone should play. It’s worth it.”
How did things look two years ago?
Two years ago, the ProCore Championship (which was subsequently named the Fortinet Championship) was also played two weeks before the Ryder Cup. AMERICAS Max Homa AND Justin Thomas He played it, and Homa went 3-1 to Marco Simone, and Thomas went 1-2-1, while the rest of the team won 6.5 points. (Brooks koepkaMeanwhile, he played at a Liv Golf event a week before the Ryder Cup, and he went 1-1-1 to Ryder Cup.)
On the European side, as noted, all 12 Europeans played at the event two weeks before the Ryder Cup, the BMW PGA championship, held near the World Tour DP headquarters.
What did it look four years ago?
Four years ago, fortinet was played again two weeks before the Ryder Cup, held in Whistle In Wisconsin, and zero Americans played. But a European did – Ion Rahm. And everyone, but three euros played BMW.
And Americans prevailed in Ryder Cup, 19-9.
Are they all playing this week?
Golf editors
Mainly.
For Americans, Dechambeau and Xander schauuffle are missing. Schauffle’s reason is unclear, while Dechambeau plays his full -time Golf with Liv Golf, means he is forbidden to play in PGA Tour’s events.
For Europeans, a player is out. Sepp Straka And his wife recently welcomed a newborn for their family.
Will Bryson Dechambeau appear this week?
Type, a person close to the situation said Monday.
On Tuesday night, the US team will have a dinner in a nearby house, and Dechambeau will participate. But since Monday, it is not expected to be in the reason for the process.
Before this week, the US captain KEEGAN BRADLEY He said Dechambeau was in constant contact with him and the team. In the Walker Cup last week, an amateur event Dechambeau participated, he also offered a look at what Bradley told his team.
“Bringing your ego,” Dechambeau said in a video Separated from USGA Social Media Team. “Be the one who knows you are.”
Will Keegan Bradley play in The Procore?
He is not, but he is expected to talk to the media in ProCore at 9am with local time on Wednesday.
Three of his vibrations – Webb Simpson, Brandt Singeker and Gary Woodland – are playing, however.
Did Bradley play at the event two weeks ahead of his two appearances on Ryder Cup? Once in 2012, he played a week ago at the tour championship, but in 2014, he did not play for three weeks. (Three weeks before that event, He withdrew from the BMW championship due to an incident of rules.)
Then what do you get out of a week like this?
Reps. Chance to fix well.
And maybe something more. Last week, in Amgen Irish Open, member of the European team Shane Lowry Said this to play at the BMW event:
Michael Bamberger
“So I think it works well for us Europeans, I think, because we have to come to the environment we are basically playing. I feel like, when you go to play Ryder Cup, you are playing for much more than just 12 ladies there or the people there, I feel like playing for tournament. You are playing for many other people.
“So I feel as if we put ourselves in that environment over the next two weeks, it shows what it meant for everyone. You’re well wishing everyone. It’s not just Europeans in the tournament, it’s other boys, Kiwis or South Africans. I think everyone has a desire for Ryder Cup’s European team.”
Can Ryder Cup’s possible couples watch this week?
Yes. And the release of the process later this week should be at least gently predicted. Will Ryder Cuppers play together? Will they play with Vice Captain?
As for the practice of practice, the 10 Americans are expected to play nine money in the morning Tuesday, and everyone will follow each other in Pro-AM on Wednesday. Those times are below:
7 am, off tee no. 10: Scottie Scheffler
7:10: Justin Thomas
7:20: Gary Woodland
7:30 Webb Simpson
7:40 Harris English
7:50 Sam Burns
8: JJ SPAUN
8:10: Ben Griffin
8:20: Brandt Snider
8:30: Cameron Young
8:40: Patrick Cantlay
8:50: Russell Henley
9: Collin Morikawa
What if they play bad?
A good question.
However, one shot at a time, right?
Do you focus more on this week – or Ryder Cup within two weeks?
Let’s go back to Lowry in that.
“We prepare for big tours all the time,” he said last week, “and you always have bigger goals ahead. But I think, after returning to the small task in words and the small goals you have – not small. I am not saying the Irish are small. amazing.
Rory Mcilroy’s Irish victory was a reminder of what was telling us
Seduce
“I think the big goal during the next month is to win Ryder Cup. I think you turn it on your day today as an athlete, and that’s what you do. Even like this afternoon, what can I do to recover, as well as I can? Of course I got in mind and the rest of the week, but I also got Ryder Cup in mind and goals.
“Yes, you just look at it. But you get that day for day. So we live our lives.”
Who needs more this week than anyone?
We will go with four Newbies – Spaun, Henley, Grin AND New AND Morikawa. The reason for the rookies is clear, as they will fight understandable nerves.
For Morikawa, he is one of the best ball strikers in Golf and should be an American anchor, but he has not won since 2023.
Are there any US Ryder team team in the field of ProCore?
Yes.
Maverick Mcnealy It’s here. A final Sunday pairing with one of the Ryder Cuppers would be interesting, surely.
What about players not here?
Had this not been a year of Ryder Cup, participation in the process of 10 Ryder Cups would probably not have happened. But with them in the field, 10 pro shifts are sitting outside.
How they feel remains to be seen.
What about the tournament itself?
With one of his best fields in the latest memory, the tournament organizers appear to be as happy as the tour winner himself.
The Procore name will also go there. As it is in the previous sentence.
