-How is your, how is your golf game?
I always bring it up every time you come on.
-I know you're a fan. -I'm a fan of golf.
-And you're gonna be, you're gonna be mad at me.
you're gonna be a little jealous of me, because I played
in the Ryder Cup. -I can't believe that.
-Yeah. -How is that possible?
-Uh-huh. Uh-huh. -Okay, wow.
-It's kind of the World Series of golf.
-Yeah. -And they basically have
all of the best golfers of the United States
fending off against all of the best golfers from Europe.
Tiger Woods and I played 36 straight holes together.
-Did you really? -No, that's not true.
He doesn't like me. -He didn't even wave at you?
-But the day before the big tournament actually starts...
[ Indistinct chatter ]
-You really did. My God. -I was like, "Wow, cool."
-Wow you're changing. -[ Laughs ] Am I really?
-But the day before they start the big tournament,
they had this sort of amateur, you know, U.S. team of athletes
and some actors against the European group.
And so we had a cool group. We had Sam Jackson there.
We had Kurt Russell, we had John McEnroe.
-Yeah! -Who literally says,
after he hits a bad shot, "You can't be serious!"
-[ Laughs ] He actually does say it.
-Michael Phelps, Condoleezza Rice is a golfer.
-Really? -Yeah.
-How is she as a golfer? -Oh, she, she plays fast.
She's very quick. She's used to solving world crisis I guess.
-Yeah, exact-- yeah. What she hits. She's off.
-She hits and she goes. -She's running.
-Actors like to talk more. -Yeah exactly.
-But it's a nerve-wracking thing because you're actually at
Le Course National, it was in France an you know.
-I couldn't tell, I thought it was in...
-Did you feel, like, when I was --
[Imitates French accent] it's called Le Course National.
-[ Imitates French accent ] Oh, then it must be in France.
-Yes. Oui. -Oh. Oui, oui?
-No, just "Oui." -Oh, just "Oui" yes of course.
-[ Normal voice ] So it was just really, uh, but you're nervous
because in the Ryder Cup, unlike the normal, you know,
golf tournament and people just kind of like,
if you hit a good shot people just kind of do that.
You know, quiet. Everything's nice.
At the Ryder Cup, long-standing tradition,
They're kind of, people are in it and they're ready to
defend their turf and, like, as an American,
if you hit a good shot, they, they boo.
And it's in France so it's a French boo.
It's like a "Beh."
[ Laughter ] Beh.
-Of course, [imitates a French boo]
-Try it. Beh. -Beh.
-Yeah it's in the back. -If it's real bad,
it's baguette. -Beh.
-Beh-guette. -Beh-guette.
-Behh. -Beh-guette.
-[ Normal voice ] So they -- you're getting boo'd?
-[ Normal voice ] Yeah so they'll boo you.
And, but they will cheer you if, if you hit a bad shot.
-Oh, yeah, I guess so. Yeah. -So I delivered on that,
periodically. -[ Laughs ]
-But, uh... --How did you end up doing?
-Well, you know, my partner was Luke Wilson and, um...
-Love that guy. -Ow!
-Yeah. Oh, yeah. -He's great. Absolutely.
-That's what I thought. -Yeah. Sure.
-We used to be friends. No, it was like go, we got down,
heavily in the match early on.
And so rather than supporting each other
and doing that whole thing, we, we basically started
humiliating each other in just random horrible attacks.
-Really? -And just infighting.
Because we were nervous, you know?
We were, we weren't doing well so as it turns out
when your partner after you hit a bad shot, tells you,
"You really suck at golf." -Yeah.
-It doesn't make you hit the next shot better.
-Better. No, no, it doesn't, no. -It's not helpful.
-No. No, not at all. -It's not a helpful thing.
-Not a helpful thing at all.
It's not a helpful thing for him to say.
But how did you end up? -We, uh, we kicked a little ass.
Yeah, we won. -Oh, really?
For America. -Yeah that's right.
For the United States of America.
-For the United States of America,
here is the victory shot right here the whole team.
-Yeah there it is. -There you go.
[ Cheers and applause ]
-My, man, not bad. -You know what I'm saying?
-Where, where are you?
Where is, uh, where is Greg Kinnear?
-Uh, yeah I'm back in the... no, no that's Nick Jonas.
[ Laughter ]
-That's Nick Jonas.
-That's Nick Jonas. I don't know.
That's Phelps, I think, over there.
-Yep. -There's Condel--
You got, uh. I think I'm well...
-Kurt Russell? Are you here? -Yeah, keep going.
[ Laughter ]
I think -- -That your head?
-Yeah, no, that's Luke. -Sam?
-Sam really, I think... -There he is.
Greg Kinnear! There he is! -Yeah.
World Champion. World Champion right there.
[ Cheers and applause ]
You're barely in this photo.
This is a terrible photo of you. -I'm kind of thinking,
"Was I there?" now. -Yeah, I don't even think
you were there. -Ah, it really -- I celebrate
with my nostrils, though. You can still see that I'm...
-You really do. -How about Sam?
Look at Sam Jackson, for crying out loud.
he's like owning the entire photograph.
-He's fan-- he's a good golfer, isn't he?
-He's pretty good. Yeah. -Yeah.
