Former world number one Dustin Johnson will have a heavy following throughout the weekend. Picture: Sarah Reed/Getty Images “They are responsible for that. The captains own a percentage of the teams 25 per cent of the team so they want to build that value. So that enthusiasm allowed us to show that it's time to show the world of the league is all about.”
