  • Despite winning twice on the PGA Tour last year, Bradley missed out on one of the six automatic qualifying places on the US team. He finished 11th overall but was then overlooked when captain Johnson selected six wildcard picks for Rome.
  • That is probably stretching it, but for the US to go with someone who does not even possess experience as a vice-captain is an extraordinary gamble.
  • The appointment of the 2011 US PGA champion still comes from way out of left field.
