"It's one week where you play for more than yourself," Donald told The Telegraph."It's ... not about money or points, it's about coming together as a team and the fans feed off that - it's all passion. I don't think we should ever get paid." McIlroy said he understands the"other side of it" because of the amount of money made on the event. He said Donald huddled players to discuss their stance after learning the direction American golfers were leaning. But McIlroy said the consensus for Team Europe was to donate the sum to the DP World Tour for other purposes.
Shane Lowry said he worked toward getting a chance to play in the Ryder Cup and involvement was more than enough compensation. "I would like to see us receive whatever the amount is, whether it's $200,000, $300,000, $400,000, $500,000 and I think we should be able to keep the money and do whatever we see fit," Woods told The Washington Post in 1999."I personally would donate all of it to charity. With all the money that's being made, we should have a say in where it goes.
