Pro golfers from American and Europe are arriving this week in Wisconsin for the Ryder Cup competition.
The battle starts Friday at Whistling Straits near Sheboygan and runs through Sunday.
American captain Steve Stricker of Madison will be trying to return the trophy here.
Europe has won seven of the last nine Ryder Cups and that has led to a different look for the American lineup.
The golf course on Lake Michigan is actually laid out in a way that will favor the American team.
That means the U-S is heavily favored behind its long hitters.
America has youth with eight of its 12 team members in their 20s.
Europe is sticking with a lineup that has been successful for a decade.
