confirm to Sports Illustrated via text<\/a> that DeChambeau will be among the 12 players on his squad.<\/p>\n\u201cBryson is going to be a very important piece to us winning the Ryder Cup,\u201d Bradley told SI. \u201cHe brings so much. He brings energy, passion but most importantly, he\u2019s one of the best players on the planet.\u201d<\/p>\n
DeChambeau remained fifth in U.S. Ryder Cup points after The Open, and though he has no more opportunities to accrue points \u2013 LIV Golf events do not count toward qualification \u2013 he\u2019s apparently now guaranteed at least a captain\u2019s pick.<\/p>\n
This will be DeChambeau\u2019s third Ryder Cup. He went 0-3 in his debut in 2018 in Paris before going 2-0-1 three years later at Whistling Straits.<\/p>\n
\u201cI hope I can bring a lot of energy and a tsunami of a crowd that\u2019s going to be rooting for Team USA,\u201d DeChambeau said Sunday in Northern Ireland.<\/p>\n
DeChambeau revealed that he\u2019d spoken to Bradley briefly last week and that Bradley had put personalized notes in several players\u2019 lockers.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt meant a lot,\u201d DeChambeau said before adding, \u201cThis year\u2019s no joke. We\u2019re tired of it. We\u2019re tired of losing.\u201d<\/p>\n
In other notable U.S. Ryder Cup news, Harris English\u2019s runner-up finish launched English, a Ryder Cupper in 2021, into sixth, about 177 points ahead of Justin Thomas. The top six in points after the BMW Championship automatically qualify while Bradley will select six more picks after the Tour Championship.<\/p>\n
Wyndham Clark, who debuted two years ago in Rome, rose six spots to No. 16 after his T-4 at The Open. Chris Gotterup leaped 19 spots to No. 22 after a huge fortnight overseas in which he won the Genesis Scottish Open and placed third at Portrush.<\/p>\n
