Happy Wednesday. The Ryder Cup merch tent at Bethpage features the most controversial visor in cup history: a hideous Bethpage Black Warning design that's "so bad it's good." One commenter nailed it: "That's so bad..I want it." The tent operates 5:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. with $100 polos and sweaters already selling out online before play begins. Golf tournament merchandise has embraced loudness over taste, with fans facing the question of whether they'll actually wear these eyesores to the grocery store. ⬇️

📰 GOLF STORIES

⛳️ Ryder Cup beer prices are insane

Ryder Cup beer prices at Bethpage Black are so high that nobody will be able to afford to get drunk, with $15 pints of Michelob Ultra and Bud Light representing the cheapest options. Premium beers cost $19 for 19.2 ounces, while single-day tickets already cost upwards of $750 before merchandise temptations kick in. The PGA of America may have found the perfect brake for moderating fan behavior: economic soberness. The Cherry Fairway Fizz with moonshine and a rubber duck offers the best buzz for your buck. ⬇️

👀 Bryson’s teammates defend him

Bryson DeChambeau's U.S. teammates rallied to his defense after Rory McIlroy questioned his motives and Brandel Chamblee called him a "circus barker" and "captain's nightmare." Scottie Scheffler praised him as a "tremendous competitor" and "great guy and good friend," while Xander Schauffele said "Bryson could be the difference for us" because "this is his arena." Russell Henley shared how DeChambeau encouraged him after a tough loss, and J.J. Spaun noted his efforts flying to team events despite his LIV schedule. ⬇️

🤔 Former Pro gets sandbagger allegations

Former PGA Tour pro Brendon de Jonge had his handicap questioned after making 17 birdies in 45 holes during a winning member-guest performance at TPC Piper Glen while playing to a +1.9 index. The $11.5 million career earner and former Presidents Cup player sparked sandbagging accusations on social media, though he also made plenty of bogeys during the five nine-hole matches. His recent tweet asking "What is the big deal with ex-pro golfers getting their amateur status back?" adds perfect context to the controversy. ⬇️
