Curious because top golfers like Tiger woods value their time and I wonder what the attraction is to play the Ryder Cup.

They actually just had a big hoopla about this during the last few Ryder Cups where some of the players thought they should get money. They didn't want the money they wanted to be able to get the money for a charity of their choice. But the PGA said they give money to the charity of their choice. The players thought the winning team should have a choice of where the charity money goes. Other then that they dont get paid.

It's not about the money. They play for the honor and prestige of it. In fact, its a top honor just to be a member of a Ryder Cup Team. Of course, it doesn't hurt endorsements either.

Ryder Cup has no payouts.
The team members do get all expenses paid, and the exposure leads to greater endorsement money, but no cash.
