Team Europe's Shane Lowry has acknowledged seeing USA captain Keegan Bradley's passionate outburst from the Netflix series Full Swing, marking early tensions ahead of the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black.

Bradley, who was captured on the show after the Presidents Cup, delivered an impassioned speech declaring, "We're gonna go to Bethpage to kick their fing a!" He embraced potential criticism of his captaincy, stating, "They're gonna underestimate me. They're gonna doubt me. I've been doubted my whole f**ing life. That's when I do my best work."

Lowry responded matter-of-factly on Golf Channel's Golf Today: "Oh yeah. We've all seen it." He acknowledged Bradley's potential as captain while maintaining confidence in Europe's preparation under Luke Donald.

The challenge of winning an away Ryder Cup remains significant, with Rory McIlroy already predicting European victory at Bethpage during Rome's celebrations: "One of the biggest accomplishments in golf right now is winning an away Ryder Cup. And that's what we're going to do at Bethpage."

The competitive spirit is clearly building on both sides as they prepare for what promises to be an intense battle in New York.
