So Young (9) and Bradley (11) are out, and Fowler (13) and Thomas (15) are in. Going with experience on foreign soul. Can't argue with that. But I had hopes for Keegan Bradley.
Ryder Cup Captain's Picks
- Thread starter Hawk_4shur
- Start date
Maybe Bradley over Burns?
Can’t believe three time winner this year Finau isn’t even in the discussion but he’s been putting like Scheffler for the last couple months.
Jt over glover will be questioned for years if they lose.
Fowler over young second question.
JT is a risky pick, I understand it, but his game was off, and that made him press to try to get in which hurt his game more at the end.
The pressing factor will likely increase with trying to "prove" he was the right choice,
man I hope he plays well

Damned if you do, damned if you don’t…Regardless, who’s BF Ed gets picked and those who don’t… the YS faces a difficult Ryder Cup this year….lots of talented Euros.
And at this level, they are all world class talents. Pick who is in better form.
It is smart politics to do so....and politics are everywhere in life. (Contrary to what some here have told me.
)
At least Fowler, Spieth and JT get to hang out together in Rome. Content galore
Burns is a good pick, Cam Young is a good course fit, but, his putting is questionable.
Euro's might be glad to see JT picked. Sure they will make JT and Scheffler putt out a lot

But he's 6-2-1 in the Ryder cup and 16-5-2 in RC/President's cup matches. It's a risky pick, but I can see why he was selected.
Too risky imo.
Great record true - but he was a Top 5 - Top 10 golfer in the world when he put that record together.
He’s not that right now. Not even close.
Possibly, they might talk themselves into Spieth/JT pairing for all 4 matches regardless
LOL.
Terrible.
I put $$$ on Europe a few weeks ago (+150) expecting this, but hoping to be surprised.

Two years ago, the experts were taking about the USA dominating the Ryder Cup for the next decade. Now, not so much.
Even if Zach has picked the team well, there’s also a wealth of young talent on the European side too.
Europe Captain's picks are in. I don't know much about the rookies but with 3 of them it should be interesting
The Euro team has really come on in the last 12 months.
Going to be a tough fight.

I predict many people will be disappointed with the location for this cup.
Not due to the course but the fans will be brutally embarassing.
