Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley leaves himself from the American team

American golfer Keegan Bradley recently announced his picks for the upcoming Ryder Cup team, and to everyone’s surprise, his own name was not on the list. Speculation had been rife that Bradley, who had shown strong form in recent tournaments, might choose himself to be a player-captain for the event. However, Bradley made it clear that his priority was to lead the team as a captain, believing that this decision would give the Americans the best chance to win the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black.

Despite calls from top American players and even President Donald Trump for Bradley to include himself in the team, Bradley remained steadfast in his decision. He emphasized that his ultimate goal was to be the best captain he could be, even if it meant not playing in the tournament himself. Instead, Bradley selected a mix of experienced players and promising rookies to represent the American team at the Ryder Cup.

Among the players chosen by Bradley were Justin Thomas, Collin Morikawa, Sam Burns, and Patrick Cantlay, all of whom had been part of the previous American team. Bradley also included Ryder Cup newcomers such as JJ Spaun and Russell Henley, showcasing his confidence in the team’s ability to perform well at the prestigious event.

While some may have questioned Bradley’s decision to not include himself as a player, he remained focused on leading the team to victory. With Europe set to announce their team soon, the stage is set for an exciting showdown at Bethpage Black. Bradley’s unwavering commitment to his role as captain highlights his dedication to the success of the American team, and his leadership will undoubtedly play a crucial role in the outcome of the Ryder Cup.
