What we know:

Bethpage Black will make history as the first public course to ever host a Ryder Cup next Friday, Sept. 26. The event, which lasts until Sunday, Sept. 28, and includes close to 5,000 volunteers, is projected to bring in half a billion dollars for the economy, as well as thousands of jobs.

"I don’t look at it just as an economic boost, I look at it as a point of pride," New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said.

Months of planning and renderings are now a reality, with fences, flags and even the first ever triple-decker stands for fans. Heading to the event? Transportation includes shuttles and buses, along with ride-share drop-offs.

"We have more than 800 law enforcement present, we have 500 troopers, we have over 100 park police," said Randy Simons, commissioner of NYS Parks."

In addition, a 61,000 square-foot merchandise tent houses over 1,500 items, including 300 hats.

"We have 70 cash registers, hundreds of feet of queuing. It’s not just the retail experience as far as what you pick, it’s making sure that your checkout is just as smooth," said Mike Quirk, Legends Merchandise chief commercial officer.

Bethpage Black previously hosted the U.S. Open in 2002 and 2009.
