Yes.  And it's where many of them spent their formative years honing their skills.  My point is that a lot of  them are culturally similar to the American born players.

"Formative years" and the culture that people identify with is where they were raised as children and young adults. THINK about what you have written before hitting the post button and maybe, just maybe, you will avoid making an ass out of yourself.

Europe has won 11 of 15 Ryder Cups in the last 30 years. Over that time, Team Europe has consistently been ahead of the US team when it comes to preparation, team dynamics, leadership, succession planning, player development, and now, analytics in Ryder Cups.

But, you know, they are basically the same.

It's simple.  American golfers represent the decay of the country. 
Thus says the Lord of hosts: Render true judgments, show kindness and mercy to one another; do not oppress the widow, the orphan, the alien, or the poor; and do not devise evil in your hearts against one another.

They are basically carbon copies of the American players that are constantly criticized here.  Identical lifestyles.

Yup.  Class, culture, teamwork and human decency are a chasm between Team Europe and the American team.

You don't know any of these people. "Human decency" is a complicated subject often masked by all sorts of things and a lot of poltical nonsense these days.  There are very good people out there, but many,many,many more who are horrible and another contingent that are asshead/scumbags.  It's just a part of our species. 

This is why I emphasize the greatness of our wide range of animal species.  Obviously, dogs hold a special status with humans, but whether it be cats, 🐘, 🐋, Rhinos, 🦒, Walruses, Emperor Penguins, 🐻 , Manatees,Leopards, Jaguars, Elk, Moose, 🐎, wildebeest, Sea Otters, Gorillas, Orangutans, Zebras, Okapi, Ibexes, bats, squirrels, koalas, kangaroos, 🐙, or platypuses, just to name a few, we need to chill out about our value as a species. 

And we absolutely, unequivocally, must respect the tremendous members of the animal kingdom sharing our planet.  Always keep this in mind:  There are millions and millions of bad and evil humam beings.  There are 0.0 in that category among the animals I've mentioned above.  0.0%  All are phenomenal.  Period.  Have a good day.

We also must protect the pangolin population.  Terrible injustice to these amazing creatures.

It's not complicated at all.  Team Europe is superior to their American counterparts in every way conceivable.  Listen, you want to cheer for losers and fascists and that's your right as an American.  I'll cheer for a team that embraces playing for one another and a team and a team that doesn't need to be paid to do so.

Reports are now surfacing that the Europeans arrived 10 days early and played multiple practice rounds on the course, while the Americans hardly played at all. If true, that's pretty damning as well.

At the end of the day, the Europeans just take it more seriously. I think the talent of the Americans shows in Singles, but dig too deep a hole in the first two days.

American arrogance.  Couple that with American ignorance and you can see why we lose these things.  Just perfectly encapsulates modern America.  Your English teacher would tell you the symbolism is too obvious and to be more nuanced.  But the Euros live here or something.
