based on the above I could see JT, Morikawa, Griffin, McNealy, Young, Cantlay if Keegan decides not to go with himself. I would rather have Keegan and Burns over McNealy or Griffin though.  Burns has been putting great and you need that desperately.  I just don't see Keegan leaving both of them out.

I’m already on record on the thread. There’s one spot (Keegan isn’t playing) and it’s probably going to be Harman because they won’t take another rookie after Spaun and Cam

Yeah, I wish Griffin and McNealy weren't ranked as high.

Xander & Cantlay are good partners.  Burns has experience needed for Ryder Cup.  Young being from that area is hard to leave off this US Team.  I would definitely leave Harman off this team too.

If I were Keegan, I wouldn't play.

Yeah, on another course Harman would be fine.  Bethpage is another matter...

Agreed...  My prediction, Top 10 are in. 

Then one of following:

  • Keegan + Young
  • Young + Cantlay

Thomas, Morikawa, Griffin, Young, Cantlay.... shit I don't know, normally no brainer would be Brooksie, but he sucks shit through a straw these days. So I guess go with McNealy? 

That's a lot of first timers. But maybe that's what we need.

Word on the ground in Atlanta seemed to be he’s picking himself over Griffin. Collin has been bad and for some reason seems to be getting a pass.

Looking at Euro team again: 

1. McIlory

2. McIntyre

3. Fleetwood 

4. Rose 

5. Rasmus Hojgaard

6. Hatton 

____________

Assumed Captain's Picks: 

7. Rahm 

8. Aberg 

9. Lowry 

10. Hovland 

11. Straka 

12. ????

 

I'm assuming Straka is in even with his recent struggles. Matthew Fitzpatrick makes sense but has a pretty awful Ryder Cup record so far. Marco Penge or Harry Hall? 

Stacked team, regardless.

Sooooo...who are we thinking for 6 captain's picks now? 

JT 

Morikawa 

Patrick Cantlay 

Cameron Young

Ben Griffin 

Maverick McNealy 

Keegan Bradley

Sam Burns 

Who else is a real possibility? 

 

Thomas and Morikawa should be locks. I would take Cantlay as well - a lot of experience and a good record in int'l events. Wouldn't hate any of Harman, Young or Burns but wouldn't be excited about any of them. Griffin, McNealy and Novak would all be wild cards. I know that Griffin and McNealy are the next 2 after JT and Collin but I wouldn't lose any sleep if they were left off. Keegan needs to figure out if he wants to play but frankly if he wasn't captaining I think I'd prefer him over any of the 6 I just listed. 

If anyone I didn't just list makes the team Keegan is on drugs.

Optimally he would be playing better but you have to bring him. No one below him deserves his spot and he's above everyone but the autos and JT. He's played in 4 straight cups for us and is above .500 in the Ryder and has an even better record in the President's. Also played some amateur cups for the US.

I will not be disappointed if he is not picked.

That's fine but I would be astounded if he doesn't make the team.

I keep going back to “Keegan isn’t going to take a bunch of rookies.”  Spaun and Henley are auto picks so they have to go. If you take Cam Young there’s another, though he was on the 2022 Pres Cup team and there’s a ton of course fit with him. Cantlay and Burns have a lot of US team experience, Mav and Griffin have none.
