There are still a few days left until Keegan Bradley's decision, which is sure to cause a public reaction. The captain of the US team already knows half of his team, but it remains for him to select a few more players who could further strengthen his team.
One of the names that comes up more often is Ben Griffin. A golfer who absolutely wowed this season with his great performances. Although he was not a name that belonged to the very top of the PGA Tour in previous years, it seems that the 29-year-old has opened a new chapter in his career.
Some of the names that are also mentioned are Colin Morikawa, Sam Burns, as well as Brian Harman.
Smylie Kaufman, a well-known face in the golf scene, put an accent on Burns, believing that he would be part of the team.

However, he has doubts whether Cameron Young should also be part of the team. Yoing's inconsistency draws various questions and reactions from the public.
All the responsibility will be on Keegan Bradley who will have to make a concrete decision.
I think Burns is going to make the team. Its just hard for me to figure out, because Cam Young, is his data good enough? I made the point that sure, it looks like hes figured it out over the last two or three months or so, but before, at the beginning of the year, the numbers were really, really poor for him. The ball-striking wasnt great. Is this a pop putting year? Is the putting going to hold up in the Ryder Cup? Because it sure wasnt there the last couple of years. The Cam Young one is a really big question mark to me. I could see why people right now are like how can you leave him off the team? Well, which one are you going to get? Are you going to get the Cam Young whos been playing really well lately? Or is he going to regress to the mean a little bit with the putter? Is the ball-striking going to hold up? I have big question marks over whether Cam Young will be on the team, he said, as quoted by The Golfing Gazette.

Morikawa vs Cantley: One will stay home
Smylie Kaufman asks additional questions. Referring to Morikawa and Patrick Cantley, believing that Bradley will have a difficult task in choosing which of the two will be part of the team and who will not.
As golfers with an illustrious past and a golfer with great success on the golf scene, it will be a great shame if one of them misses the Ryder Cup. However, it is certain that one will stay at home and watch this prestigious event on the TV screen.
