That would seem to be the subliminal message running through a video shared by the Ryder Cup USA Twitter account in which Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka – golf’s own Ross and Rachel – appeared to finally bury the hatchet.
The
long-time rivals had both pledged to put their very public differences
behind them this week at Whistling Straits for the good of the team.

• Woosnam blasts ‘arrogant’ Brooks Koepka
In the short clip, Koepka is seen walking up to DeChambeau
on the range. The pair then have a brief chat before Koepka returns to
his own bay. As he leaves, the crowd – with some encouragement from DeChambeau – all cheer.

Hmm.
How
fortunate it was that there was a camera – sorry, cameras – there to
capture this, ahem, perfectly organic, spontaneous moment.
Naturally, social media users were quick to deliver their verdict…
The most staged thing ever. Pair them together if their pals

This is so weak and I can’t even believe it’s being promoted as it is. Less than 1 second of interaction nonetheless. Just wild to me that we’re celebrating this. Doomed.
