Um, yeah, I think it shows in my golf and you know, yeah, I’m sure you can see it on me, but even going back to July playing the Scottish Open and then obviously the Open at home at Port Rush, you know, these, you know, those are the things that um, you know, they fill me up as a golfer these days and uh, it is it’s it’s great to it’s great to come back and obviously great result last week and amazing scenes on Sunday and um, but you know, we have to look ahead to this week and and ultimately to a couple weeks time as well. So, but it’s great to be back. Great to be amongst familiar faces and you know, I’m excited to to get started this week. 75 holes last weekend, plus how emotionally draining it is to win in front of a home crowd. Another big week this week, then the team trip to Beth Paige. You’re going to say that’s a stupid question, Jamie, but how do you keep the energy levels up once you finally do get to Beth Page? Yeah, I think um look, last week was a busy week. This week’s a busy week. Obviously, the two days of the practice trip are going to be busy, but I think that’s the, you know, you know, the rest of that week from Wednesday to Sunday. Next week is a time to have a bit of fun, recharge the batteries, but then also, you know, keep your game taken over and make sure that you’re doing the right things and that you know you’re you’re sharp going into Beth Page. So, um, the look, the practice trip will be important for a lot of different reasons for us as a team, but I also think the rest of that week’s going to be important where, you know, we all do what we need to do. Like, we’re all individual sports people. We all have our different routines. And so, whatever we need to do to to be 100% ready going into Beth Page, that that’s what we’ll do. And um, but yeah, next week’s an important week for that. But, it’s great to have all the lads here this week, apart from Se. Um, but Se will join us on the practice trip. And it’ll be great to to get us all together. How beneficial is that little team trip going to be? Because the one before Rome was huge. Yeah, I think you know it’s look it’s amazing that it’s pretty much the same 12. Obviously you you sub in Raasmus for Nikolai this time but um I think it is you know it’s you know since Rome two years ago a lot’s happened you know in terms of golf and people playing elsewhere and you know so I think just to get us all together again and to to build up that um you cuz some you know the majority of us see each other a lot but then there’s a few people we don’t see as much. So, I think just getting us all back together and and sort of building building that up again um is is going to be really really important, but like I think it’ll be easy once we all get together. Like it’s it’s like nothing’s ever really changed. Um so yeah, I’m excited for it. Does that continuity in the team and the back room team give us a head start or are we still underdogs? I think we’re still underdogs. I think anytime an away Rder Cup um team comes to town. So, you know, I I do think we’re still underdogs. I think it’s a really tall task, but not an insurmountable one. I I think that there is an opportunity there. Um but we have to get the planning right. We have to make sure that um you know, we’re all we’re all ready for for what um lies ahead, but you know that I think Luke’s got looks got everything under control and I’m I’m sure um you know, he’s thought of every single scenario. So, I think we’re good in that department. Just very finally, this may be something you’re unaware of, but they are selling a USA Ryder Cup t-shirt. Are you aware of this? Is can you confirm or deny whether that is the silhouette of Roy Mroy? It looks more like Adam Scott to me than me, I think. But um but I Yeah, it’s uh it looks it looks a little similar. I don’t know. I I there be loads of American fans at Beth Page with Roy Mroy silhouette in their tops. That’s okay. That’s fine. I I won’t mind that.
