THE atmosphere on the first tee at Le Golf National early on Friday morning is bound be electric .
More than one golfer has described the Ryder Cup trip from the putting green to the first tee as like “a walk to the gallows”.
This time Europe and the US will tee off largest grandstand ever constructed for a Ryder Cup.
The imposing structure, which will also provide fans with a view of the 18th green, will feature more than 6,500 seats as well as standing room for a further 150 fans.
The number dwarfs the 2,148 seats at Gleneagles in 2014, or the 1,668 fans at Hazeltine National two years ago, meaning the nearly three times as many fans will be able to soak up the unrivalled first tee experience.
So it will be some occasion when the opening drives are sent soaring down the first hole.
What time will the first shot of the Ryder Cup be?
The first fourball match will make ‘the most terrifying shot in golf’ to the first tee at 7.00am.
The respective two-man teams will each be introduced to the crowd at 7.10 am and then tee will belong to the Americans to let the games begin.
What time do the subsequent three matches start?
They will go in 15-minute intervals and begin at 7.25am, 7.40am and 7.55am.
Why does the US have the honour of hitting the first ball?
The visitors traditionally get things underway. Whoever strikes the first ball carries all the pressure in the world to find the fairway.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
