The U.S. stars discussed the hot-button topic Wednesday, saying they'd play in Ryder Cups for free but also comparing it to the name, image and likeness issue in college sports.

. The players are the biggest part of the event’s success. And yet, from a long policy of giving the players $200,000 to earmark for charity, they compete in a very intense event for free. It was pointed out to Thomas, however, that Xander Schauffele’s father, Stefan, was outspoken on the issue in several forums last year. He made note of the immense sums earned and the lack of transparency, while also suggesting more funds could be directed to charity.
Thomas used the name, image and likeness issue that is now part of college sports as a similar example. Those athletes are now being compensated because they ultimately are ones generating substantial sums for universities.“As far as I’m concerned, I think all of us on the American side are more than willing to play in the Ryder Cup for free,” Scheffler said. “We’ve been playing in the Ryder Cup for free for a long time. If they want to pay us to play in the tournament, that’s great.
