Keegan Bradley knew he would have a tough task picking six players to further strengthen the U.S. Ryder Cup team. Many candidates were in the running, and one of the names mentioned in previous weeks was MaverickMcNealy, a golfer with enormous potential and talent. The 29-year-old golfer has had some flashy moments this season and seemed to be on the right track.
However, in the American team the competition is fierce and it was known that someone would be left off the list.
Keegan Bradley touched on his decision to leave McNealy out of the squad, admitting he had a very difficult time during the player selection process.
The captain of the American team called McNealy to inform him of the decision, and the details of the conversation are not known. It is certainly not easy to accept such news, but it is a great honor to be considered for this kind of competition.

Keegan Bradley expects McNealy to see even more success in the coming years and possibly be part of the squad that will compete in Europe in 2027.
Failure to view as motive
Several other names were mentioned as players who could be important additions to this team, but they failed to realize their dream and become a part of this team.
Regardless, this can serve as a huge motivation for all of them and an opportunity to use such situations to their advantage. Life is sometimes unfair, but it is necessary to accept any outcome and work even harder to prove to everyone, even those who doubt you, that you deserve to be a part of this team.
