VIDEO: Walk through the first-tee tunnel at the Ryder Cup

FOLLOW: iHEART | TUNEIN


Face it: You're never going to play in the Ryder Cup. You'll never know the nerves, the pressure of representing 11 other guys, a captain and a country (or continent).

Luckily, Nicolas Colsaerts has a camera and Instagram account. The Belgian, who isn't on the European team this go round, is at Gleneagles and shooting inside-the-ropes footage. Colsaerts even went so far as to shoot video of what it's like to walk through the tunnel from the practice green to the first tee at the Scottish resort. It's a stirring, albeit quick, stroll, walking past Ryder Cup legends for both sides.

If this video doesn't give you goosebumps, then check your pulse.
