Ryan Moore becomes US Ryder Cup captain Love’s last pick

Though he has never played in a Ryder Cup, Moore boasts an impressive match play resume, having won an NCAA individual title, the U.S. Amateur Public Links, the U.S. Amateur and finished fifth at this year’s WGC-Match Play. The team will also be missing Tiger Woods, who has moved to a vice-captain’s role while in recovery. “You’re throwing stuff out”, Miller said of Love. You can focus a lot on the fact that there are six rookies on the team but I really don’t think these guys are going to be afraid when it comes to the Ryder Cup. “I can not wait to head to Minnesota next week and try to bring home the (Ryder) Cup“.

The Ryder Cup is administered by the PGA of America in the US and the European Tour in Europe.

The US team will be led by Phil Mickelson, who will be taking part in his eleventh Ryder Cup, alongside 2015 Masters and US Open champion Jordan Speith and this year’s US Open victor Dustin Johnson. The Tour Championship not only has an $8.5 million purse and is the culmination of a 40-plus event season, but it is also where the FedEx Cup champion is crowned, with the victor receiving a $10 million bonus. Europe has six rookies on its 12-man team.

“There seem to have been issues about team spirit and chemistry”, Westwood told ESPN.

“I think it was blatantly obvious what I needed to do after Baltusrol, in terms of trying to fix my putting or to at least address some issues in it”.

Israel qualified for their first World Baseball Classic with a 9-1 victory over Britain on Sunday to clinch the four-team qualifying tournament in Brooklyn. They are playing on home soil and before the most raucous atmosphere in golf. “You can prepare with your partner, be ready and eliminate a lot of the uncertainty which ultimately causes pressure”. It will be odd, in this year of all years, to see British Ryder Cup golfers draping themselves in the 12 gold stars of the European Union flag, but Clarke turns passive-aggressive at the very suggestion.

In the fraught, bubbling environment of the Ryder Cup cauldron, there are usually players who emerge with the kind of eye-popping, vein-bursting adrenaline-charged histrionics that resemble Doctor David Banner morphing into the Hulk.

The task force also chose as captain one of its own members, Davis Love III, a decision which brings to mind the appointment of Dick Cheney as George W. Bush’s vice-presidential running mate in 2000 after Cheney had headed the search committee for a suitable candidate.

The bookmakers have made the Americans odds-on favourites to prevent Europe winning the Ryder Cup for an historic, fourth-successive time. He ended the year with a PGA Tour victory, a chance to win the FedEx Cup team and a spot on the Presidents Cup team at age 20.
