Joining us now Beth Page Golf Academy player Damiana Beige. It is so cool to meet you because you can see in your eyes the second you walked into our live studio, the excitement and the passion you have for this course and seeing it the way it is right now. Tell us about that. It's been an incredible journey. I've been at Beth Page in the academy for about 6 years now. And as I progressed through, I became a coach, and the academy is just incredible being able to come in every morning and watch these kids so excited for golf, and especially this year has been Electric with the Ryder Cup, getting the kids interaction with the course and getting them to watch everything that being built up has just been incredible. Just think about all of the new. That the Ryder Cup coming here to Long Island to New York, you know, a future star out there saying this is the coolest thing I've ever been a part of. I want to be one of these people. Yeah, I hear the kids say all the time. They talk about their favorite golfers and how excited they are that their parents got them tickets for a rider. They're just so excited for it, knowing how well you know this course and how it looks like. Describe to people what it is now, what it's transformed into. I actually teared up on the way in here just seeing it. I've been coming here for so long that when I came in and it was grandstands everywhere and just golfers and media, it was just something that I never could have imagined the course transforming into. And especially being here throughout the entire building process of got to see it built from the ground up and see all of the effort that all of the workers have put into making this place look like this. Thank you so much for joining us. What a great perspective we hear the grandstands are going to be up for a couple of months and maybe you want to play the black walls there. I'll get the stand and for the thousands.
