Steve Stricker reveals wild card options for Team USA
Captain Steve Stricker named his wild-card pick for Team USA at the upcoming 2021 Ryder Cup.
The race will be held September 24-26 at Whistling Straits, Wisconsin.
Colin Morikawa, Dustin Johnson, Bryson DeChambeau, Brooks Koepka, Justin Thomas and Patrick Cantley are automatic qualifiers.
With his wild-card selection, Stricker selected Jordan Spieth, Zander Schauffele, Daniel Berger, Scottie Scheffler, Harris English and Tony Fury promise.
Four of them will make their Ryder Cup debuts.
Europe has won nine of the past 12 Ryder Cups and is the defending champion after winning in 2018. But Stricker is not afraid of history.
“I spoke to every single one of them a few days ago and they were so excited, happy and excited to be part of this team,” he said.

Who are the 2021 Ryder Cup snubs?
It’s a head-scratching option for Stricker, who has a lot of talent at his disposal but a lot of Ryder Cup snubs.
Patrick Reed, aka Captain America, may be the biggest snub, having been on every Team USA since 2014.
He only recovered from bilateral pneumonia at the Tour Championship last week, though, and he’s not in great shape either.
“It’s not an easy task,” Stricker said, “but I think it’s just the uncertainty about his fitness, and the lack of a game really, that led to our decision in the final stages.”

Qualifying No. 13, three-time Ryder Cup player Webb Simpson will also feel left out.
He’s been consistent all year, finishing last season with six top-10s and 13 top-25s in 21 games.
It’s likely that Kevner also has an outside opportunity. Na has finished in the top eight four times in six races. He also had a low score of 72 holes at the Tour Championship.
Other potential Ryder Cup snubs include Will Zlatoris, Sam Burns, Billy Horschel, Kevin Kisner and Jason Kokrak.

Who will be on the European Ryder Cup team?
Paul Casey, Tommy Fleetwood, Victor Hoffland, Rory McIlroy and Jon Rahm have been named in European captain Padraig Harrington’s squad seat.
Four more will qualify through the BMW Championship in Wentworth on Sunday. Harrington will live on Sky Sports on Sunday night for his three captaincy picks.
Those looking to get involved with Whistling Straits include Matt Fitzpatrick, Lee Westwood, Shane Lowry, Bernd Wiesberger, Richard Bland, Danny Willett, Matthias Schwab, Justin Rose, Ian Poulter, Henrik Stenson and Sergio Garcia.
