Rick posted a lengthy tweet with a screen grab of a text message he received from an anonymous source with supposed information into Bradley’s team.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“It’s 100% verified,” claims Rick.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The insider claims Bradley’s side played just nine of the holes at Bethpage Black twice before the start of the Ryder Cup.<\/p>\n

They then played just five more holes across the road because it had started to rain.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Luke Donald’s Team Europe on the other hand are said to have played Bethpage Black a total of eight time in the 10 days leading into the Ryder Cup.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If that information is indeed true then it ultimately shows since Europe stormed into a seven-point lead heading into the Sunday singles.<\/p>\n
Although USA mounted a valiant fightback on the final day, it was too little too late as Europe held on to win by two points (15-13) and become the first away team to lift the Ryder Cup since 2012.\u00a0<\/p>\n
