Ryder Cup money for the American players is about good charity and bad optics

Ryder Cup money for the American players is about good charity and bad optics 11 mins ago The Americans are an easy target for Europe at the Ryder Cup. It has nothing to do with them being outplayed. It's about how much they're getting paid. Europeans have been sniping at the U.S. team for a plan that gives them $300,000 for charity and a $200,000 stipend. The American players say it's all going to charity. But it's a bad look and leaves them open to criticism because of all the money in golf. The PGA of America has been paying them for 26 years with all the money designated for charity. This has always been about principle.
