/Second-guessing the Ryder Cup captains is THE biennial art form of golfers and writers, and Adam Schupak raises plenty of great questions for USA Captain Tom Watson before he even pencils in a lineup card.
Besides noting that former non-World Top 5 Patrick Reed would have missed making the team had the points race included the playoffs, Schupak writes...
The timing of the three captain’s picks is just as odd. Watson made the point that he was looking for hot hands. If so, Sept. 2, the day after the Deutsche Bank Championship, the second leg in the four-tournament FedEx Cup playoffs, would appear premature.
“Why don’t they wait until the end of the playoffs?” Ryan Palmer said.
Good question, especially since Watson made such a big deal about adding a week off between the Tour Championship and the Ryder Cup. What’s the big rush to solidify the team? It’s not as if the year is 1927 and Team USA has to board the S.S. Minnow across the pond. Are we worried about printing the commemorative program? Don’t they have a FedEx Office over there that stays open late?
