Kevin Kisner shared a story about how Bryson DeChambeau's phone issues disrupted Team USA's Ryder Cup communication. DeChambeau initially didn't have an iPhone, complicating group chats, and later provided the wrong number after getting a new phone.

There are plenty of reasons why the U.S. lost last year's Ryder Cup, but it didn't help that Team USA couldn't get on the same page. Or, rather, the same text chain.
We learned that on Wednesday as one of the team's vice captains, Kevin Kisner, told a hilarious tale on the latest episode of Barstool's Fore Play podcast. As Kisner revealed, captain Keegan Bradley set up a group chat once the American team was set. But one player, Bryson DeChambeau, didn't have an iPhone, which made sharing certain things with him difficult. (Isn't there always that one person on the chat with a different phone?)

To Bryson's credit, he went out and got a new team-friendly phone, but that led to the next problem. Somehow, he managed to give Bradley the wrong number, and, well, take it away, Kiz!
"So some random person in America is getting all these comments from the Ryder Cup team," Kisner says in the clip. "So that was a hilarious start to our Ryder Cup."
Hilarious, indeed. Although, you know who's also laughing? That well-oiled machine known as Team Europe.
"I think the guy, if I remember correctly, like, 'Hey, I don't know what any of this is, but good luck to y'all,'" Kisner continues with the tale. "I think somebody even commented back, 'Whatever, Bryson, funny joke.' And then the guy was like, 'No, seriously, I don't know who these people are."
Let's hope Team USA gets this straightened out before next year's Ryder Cup in Ireland. Captain Jim Furyk already has his first task.

Team USA struggled with communication due to Bryson DeChambeau not having an iPhone, which complicated the group chat set up by captain Keegan Bradley.
DeChambeau's initial lack of an iPhone made it difficult for the team to share information, and after he got a new phone, he mistakenly provided the wrong number to the captain.
