There are occasionally questions asked over a player making their Ryder Cup debut. How will he handle the pressure? The crowd? The occasion? But Morikawa has shown over the last year that a lack of previous experience can also count for little. He won on his debut appearances at both the 2020 PGA Championship and the 2021 Open Championship, and was the first player to qualify for Team USA. Asked about his preferred Ryder Cup playing partners, he chose Justin Thomas or Xander Schauffele: "Those guys have very similar games, they're very consistent. They're just guys you get along with. I think that's what a big part of it is about, not just matching up games. I've hung out with Xander, I've hung out with JT and I played a lot of golf with them. That just makes things a little easier by the time when you're put in a setting with 40,000 fans around you, hitting a first tee shot."Appearances: Four (2010, 2012, 2016, 2018)Record: Won 7 Lost 9 Halved 0 k2g2g1zn "There have been so many twists and turns in this division. k2g2g1zn While all those to experience the transition cite the challenges posed by learning an NFL playbook from scratch, the transferrable physical traits naturally continue to tempt others into attempting the jump. k2g2g1zn Koepka has been one of the most consistent players on tour in recent years, particularly at the majors when he has 12 top-seven finishes in his last 16 appearances. He was an impressive 3-1-0 on his Ryder Cup debut at Hazeltine in 2016, but withdrew from the Tour Championship with a wrist injury, which seemed to occur when he hit a root. He played down the severity of the issue, saying: "Same wrist I had issues with back in '17, '18, so just making sure it's all good." k2g2g1zn
