told reporters<\/a>. “Keegan, however, is in that predicament. If I was the captain, I’d pick Keegan. I think he’s played great.”<\/p>\n“Yeah, I would pick him too,” Fowler added. “I think it would be hard to find really any or many Americans that would argue that point.”<\/p>\n
The United States will carry a 12-player roster to face the European roster on Sept. 26-28 at Bethpage Black. Scottie Scheffler,\u00a0J.J. Spaun\u00a0and\u00a0Xander Schauffele\u00a0have already accumulated enough points to make the team, and the top six golfers in points after this week’s BMW Championship will also be on the team. Bradley will then make six captain’s picks.<\/p>\n
He has already said that Bryson DeChambeau would be selected, while Russell Henley\u00a0and\u00a0Harris English\u00a0are likely locks as well. All three are currently top six in points.<\/p>\n
Bradley is currently 10th in the U.S. points standings, with Justin Thomas,\u00a0Collin Morikawa,\u00a0Ben Griffin,\u00a0Maverick McNealy\u00a0and\u00a0Andrew Novak\u00a0making up the remainder of the top 12. Players like Brian Harman\u00a0(13th in points),\u00a0Cameron Young\u00a0(14) and Cantlay (15th) also will likely garner consideration, especially if Bradley doesn’t pick himself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Keegan Bradley will have to decide whether he’ll choose himself for this year’s Ryder Cup team, which would…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":70538,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[566],"tags":[64,63,755,85],"class_list":["post-70537","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-golf","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-golf","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/70537","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=70537"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/70537\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/70538"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=70537"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=70537"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=70537"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
