Keegan Bradley made headlines earlier this week by announcing that Bryson DeChambeau would be a part of the Team USA Ryder Cup team, even before captain’s picks were due.
DeChambeau, who is part of LIV Golf, can only earn qualifying points through the majors. Despite limited opportunities, he has managed to secure a spot by finishing well in recent tournaments.
Currently ranked fifth among U.S. golfers for qualifying points, DeChambeau is expected to be a key player in the upcoming Ryder Cup. His inclusion has been supported by Collin Morikawa, who believes DeChambeau’s talent and energy make him a valuable asset to the team.
Bradley, who could potentially be the first playing captain since Arnold Palmer in 1965, expressed his confidence in DeChambeau’s abilities, stating that he brings not just skill, but also passion and energy to the team.
DeChambeau himself is determined to make an impact at the Ryder Cup, expressing his frustration with past losses and his eagerness to help Team USA secure a victory. The event is scheduled to take place on Long Island at the Bethpage Black Course from September 26-28.
DeChambeau’s selection adds an exciting element to the Team USA lineup, and fans are eagerly anticipating his performance at the prestigious tournament.
