FARMINGDALE, N.Y. – It’s the type of scenario that should catch the attention of any American golf fan.
Two weeks removed from representing the U.S. in the Olympics, Rickie Fowler and Patrick Reed now find themselves in the final group at The Barclays with another chance to don the red, white and blue at stake. To add a little flavor, the setting happens to be Bethpage Black – a former U.S. Open and future Ryder Cup venue.
Perhaps the only thing missing is a little patriotic face paint.
Sunday’s finale on the Black Course is shaping up like a Ryder Cup primer.
