US Ryder Cup captain Bradley says security will be watching if Bethpage Black crowd gets nasty

U.S. Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley offered a warning Tuesday about Bethpage Black that does not need a special sign by the first tee: Organizers will have security inside the ropes to make sure the New York crowd doesn't get out of control.

Bradley and European captain Luke Donald met in Manhattan for a news conference signally (roughly) a year out from the Sept. 26-28 matches at Bethpage Black, the public course on Long Island with a reputation for rough crowds.

“I have total faith in the fans of New York to cheer on their team, proudly and loudly,” Bradley said. “I don't want them to cross the line, to do anything that would affect the course of play. But it's going to be a tough atmosphere. It's going to be tough for both teams.”

Bradley said there would be security “monitoring the situation.”
