There has been a lot of talk about the European Ryder Cup team and Luke Donald's idea to use VR headsets to bring the Ryder Cup experience closer to younger players, but also to more experienced ones. Reactions to the decision have been mixed, but it just goes to show where the sport is going and how much technology will change not only golf, but other sports as well.
John Rahm revealed what the VR experience was like in an interview with Sky Sports.
The Spanish golfer believes that VR is not even close to the Ryder Cup experience, but it can certainly be helpful and it seemed interesting to everyone.
Rory McIlroy reacted
Rory McIlroy also shared his emotions about such innovations yesterday, stressing that nothing can prepare players for the atmosphere of the Ryder Cup.
Playing on Bethpage Black will be a completely different experience, especially for young golfers who will feel a touch of fear and caution.
However, there are experienced players like Rory McIlroy, Justin Rose and others who can provide great support to the younger players.
