US president Donald Trump posted on social media that he is planning to attend next month’s Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black, as well as who he thinks should be playing for for the American side.
The decision on whether Bradley selects himself has only grown more difficult as he has climbed up the leaderboard after a slow start. He wasn’t sure a win at East Lake would make it any easier.
Given the way Keegan Bradley has played the past two years, the only captain who could keep Keegan Bradley off the Ryder Cup team is Keegan Bradley himself.
With two tournaments remaining until Bradley makes his captain’s picks (and one until the automatic qualifiers are finalised), where does the USA side stand?
It’s not fair, but it’s not wrong: if somebody else picked him to be on the team, it would be fine. If he picks himself, as he appears poised to do, it’s strange.
Bradley, the American captain for this September’s Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black, lit a fire that is going to burn bright and strong on both sides of the pond.
After Bradley helped the American team to its 10th straight win over the International team in the Presidents Cup, he is now on the hot seat as the leader of a US team that was beaten handily by the Luke Donald-led European squad in Rome.
Despite unleashing an early scoring barrage, the US found securing its 10th straight victory in the Presidents Cup an arduous task on Sunday but got it done with a result that seemed like destiny.
