Were he actually the Texas good ol' boy he plays on TV, as opposed to a privileged scion of the well-to-do New England moneyed class (oops, there I go with the snippy), I might find his earnest befuddlement a bit more endearing, but for a man suspicious of all things foreign (or worse--European), it's nice to see the tournament acknowledged as worthwhile as opposed to say, some kind of French plot to humiliate the US.
