After the Ryder Cup, Staff are still working hard to clean the Whistling Straits

Although the worldwide golf tournament ended a month ago in Sheboygan County, work on the 43rd Ryder Cup continues in Whistling Straits. About 80 Arena Americas workers in Oak Creek are demolishing a massive temporary infrastructure that has turned the golf course into a stadium for more than 40,000 fans. The Ryder Cup fans can buy Ryder Cup Tickets from our website.

Niall Gaffney is the head of the company's site, he said of the smash. "It's interesting to see everything go up, it’s not the same. It's even more disappointing to see everything go down."

It's not that his team doesn't want to finish it soon. "These guys want to get out of here. Some people have been here since May 24. So they've had enough. They've been on vacation. Don't get me wrong, but they've spent a lot of time here. Ready to finish."

It took nearly four months to complete and should be completed in half the time. Gaffney hopes to clear things up before winter. "We're actually having a snowball fight," he admitted. "But you never know when it will arrive."

The fact that slows down this process after Ryder Cup is that whatever the crew can recycle or reuse, they will. "Carpets and mesh can be two things that we can't really recycle. Recycling these items is very difficult because they wear out during the event. Everything else, it just has to be handed over to the next job," Gaffney said.

For most materials, the next job is in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and the venue of the Spring Golf PGA Championship. The other parts are stored at the headquarters in Oak Creek. This is a lot of fragments.

Gaffney estimates there are 1.2 million square feet of floor and 600,000 square feet of tents. This is one of the most important tasks the company has ever done.

As an Irishman, Gaffney offered something he thought wasn't what he wanted, he said with a smile. "You (the US team) are great, well, of course, Europe lost. The players are great I think. The rookie is great. Too disappointed. I just want to make it more competitive on Sunday. I'm a golfer, I just want to make it a better game, but you guys are incredible."
