All eyes are on Keegan Bradley, the American golfer who could become the first player-captain at the Ryder Cup. The veteran golfer has the chance to become the first player-captain since 1963, when Arnold Palmer was the captain at East Lake.
A lot has changed since then, and the public is not entirely convinced that Keegan Bradley is the person who will be an important factor as captain of the US team.
He has a big responsibility ahead of him.
In addition to having to think carefully about whether he wants to be a player-captain, Bradley must think about who to give a chance to at the next Ryder Cup.
It's a difficult task, as there are many US golfers with the necessary quality.

Some of the important figures in the golf scene have reacted to Keegan Bradley's dual role, a little confused and unsure that the veteran golfer can really succeed by performing on both fronts.
It seems there isnt much optimism that Keegan is the person who can really take a big step and help the US team win on home soil.
The Americans want to take revenge on the Europeans for their defeat in Rome, but they are aware that they have a serious team in front of them with Rory McIlroy as the leader of a generation.
Xander Schauffele reacts
Xander Schauffele is one of those who thinks that Bradley would be a great addition to the team as a player-captain.
He pointed out that Bradley is one of the best American players, and his great performances in recent months speak for it best.

It is already known which six US golfers will participate in this competition.
The leader of this generation is certainly Scottie Scheffler, and there are also Xander Schauffele, J.J. Spaun, Bryson Dechambeau, Harris English, as well as Russell Henley.
There are already talks about other names that could be the captain's choice, and we will see if Bradley will really make the right move and if he will make this team even stronger.
