Q Tommy, (indiscernible)?
TOMMY FLEETWOOD: Well, anybody playing with Rory is going to be a good partnership. I'm very excited to play with him. We've known each other for a long time, and Rory has been a huge part of my Ryder Cup journeys, been a part of both Ryder Cups that I've played in before, and now this one.
And our games gel well, we get on very well. And can't wait to play with him tomorrow.
Q Rory, when you put your head on the pillow tonight, wake up in the morning, this Ryder Cup (indiscernible), how would you describe the vibe and togetherness of this team?
RORY MCILROY: Yeah, you know, I feel like this is as excited and as ready a group as I've been a part of. We're all really relaxed, and we know the task at hand.
It's a really strong American team, and they have a lot of really tough partnerships. We're going up against one of them tomorrow in Xander and Patrick. They've got an incredible record.
But as Tommy said, how Tommy played in France and in his last home Ryder Cup and the partnership he had -- I just hope I can live up to Francesco, is really all I'm trying to do here. So if I can live up to Francesco, I think we'll be okay.
