What did the celebrities say about the All-Star match?

Novak Djokovic will be playing for Team Monty in the All-Star match at the Marco Simone Golf and Country Club, Rome. After he was announced as one of the players to participate, he said via the Ryder Cup:

"I can't wait to tee it up in Rome and experience the incredible atmosphere of a Ryder Cup, which has become legendary."

He praised leading disabled golfer Kipp Popert and said he is excited to play alongside him.

"The course looks like a fantastic test of golf and my playing partner Kipp, a seasoned pro, has won a lot on the G4D Tour recently so I'm confident we can get a point for the team. It’s going to be a great spectacle for the fans," said Djokovic.

American actress Kathryn Newton will be playing for Team Pavin. She recently revealed that she had been following golf since childhood and that playing the All-Star match in Rome would be an honor.

Newton said:

"I've been an avid golfer since I was a kid and the Ryder Cup was always must watch TV. To get the chance to play Marco Simone right before Team Europe and USA tee off is going to be incredible. I'm honored to play and grateful to be invited. It’ll be nerve wracking, but I've got some great teammates alongside me and a great Captain in Corey."

Interestingly, Italy is hosting the Ryder Cup event for the first time in history. Soon after the All-Star match, Zach Johnson's United States team will take on Luke Donald's European team in hopes of defending their title.
