Happy Friday. A Bethpage Black heckler delivered the perfect line to Rory McIlroy during Thursday's practice round, shouting "You don't need a button to choke, Rory!" as the European star adjusted his shirt. McIlroy couldn't help but laugh and point back, saying "That's a good one" while his teammates also cracked up at the clever chirp. The moment proved you can heckle players without crossing lines, setting the tone for how New York crowds should behave all week long. ⬇️

Best cat call so far this week and rightfully acknowledged by Team Europe.

🎙️ The Starter

How many majors did Arnold Palmer win?

🔥 The Signature Flame

From the makers of the world’s most popular smokeless fire pit comes the new Solo Stove Summit 24™—their most advanced design yet. Featuring taller, brighter, more mesmerizing flames, the Summit keeps the foursome hangin’ long after the 19th hole.

Thanks to the Quick-Strike Cone™, you’ll have a roaring fire in seconds (translation: more time to watch the Tour instead of fumbling with kindling). The upgraded smokeless tech means you’ll smell like fresh-cut fairways, not campfire smoke. And with its sleek low-profile design, the Solo Stove Signature Flame™ is the perfect backdrop for reliving birdies, bad beats, and that one “miracle” shot you’ll be talking about all week.

Durable. Easy to use. Built to last a lifetime. ⬇️

📰 GOLF STORIES

⛳️ Viktor Hovland on dealing with Americans

Viktor Hovland delivered the perfect answer for dealing with rowdy American fans at Bethpage Black, saying hecklers "won't really come close to the thoughts that I have in my own head." The Norwegian star, known for openly battling his inner demons on the course, said he'll "just laugh it off for the most part" and make birdies to quiet the crowd. After winning the Valspar Championship despite "a lot of disgusting shots," Hovland captioned his victory post: "Stupid, stupid game." Good luck heckling someone already harder on themselves. ⬇️

"There's going to be some comments here and there. They won't really come close to the thoughts that I have in my own head."

👀 Rory gets a taste of Team USA

Rory McIlroy got an early taste of rowdy New York fans after blading a wedge over the first green during practice rounds, immediately hearing jeers from the predominantly American crowd. The World No. 2 and reigning Masters champion kept his head down and moved on, knowing he'll be the primary target all week especially after his recent Bryson DeChambeau comments. Former Ryder Cup captain Paul McGinley said McIlroy is "mentally engaged" with "no concerns whatsoever" heading into the competition. The early heckling shows how much Americans fear him. ⬇️

🤔 Ryder Cup needs Bryson vs Rory

Bryson DeChambeau and Rory McIlroy have golf's only real rivalry, but both passed on stoking flames at Bethpage despite recent jabs about "chirping" and getting attention by mentioning others. Their rivalry includes Pinehurst heartbreak, Masters redemption, and DeChambeau's viral "you kind of did it to yourself" line at The Showdown. Both are the planet's greatest drivers, with Bryson hitting 361-yard carries on the range while Rory posted 335. The 360-yard drivable first hole at Bethpage Black demands we get this matchup. ⬇️

Rory: “I’d like to get him back for what he did to me at U.S. Open.”
Bryson: “To be fair, you kinda did it to yourself.”
10/10.
