Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley insists that United States players will “ do the right thing and do a lot of good with this money” as they get paid to play in the event for the first time this week.
The PGA of America announced that they will give their 12-man team $500,000 (£370,000) each, with $300,000 (£220,000) going to a charity or charities of the player's choice. The remaining $200,000 (£148,000) has been labelled a “stipend” for the players to keep.
