Do you think the European team would have been stronger if Paul Casey and Shane Lowry qualified automatically, as i think they should have easily qualified but they were not consistent enough

Paul casey refused to rejoin the European tour so basically ruled himself out of consideration.

Lowry hasn't had a great year compared to last year

At least Rory's found some form, great round today to win the Deutsche Bank Championship. Wonder if the change away from a Nike putter has helped him.

3 GB & NI players in the Fedex Top 10 but only one of them going to the Ryder Cup. 4 Americans in the Top 10 and all of them will probably be in their team.

Yes I don't like Mcilroy but it was probably important he got a us tour win before the Ryder cup.

It was a very good round considering how poorly he started the tournament

Americans leave out Bubba Watson and picked players in form it seems although Fowler's previous Ryder Cup record must be a worry for them.

Danny Willett seems to be coming back into form. Just went 69 holes without dropping a shot. His only bogey was at the 3rd hole in the 1st round, still wasn't enough to win though as Molinari beat him by a single shot.

You wonder if the Americans have it right leaving one pick really late, team Europe could have done with the Ryder cup experience of molinari

I said that to someone at the time.

We're gonna gave 2 or 3 players in great form but not in the team. To have the best chance of winning it would be ideal if you could have all the form players in the squad.

Davis Love has said that if someone wins the Tour Championship and is not in the Ryder Cup team then he will pick that player instead of Bubba Watson

Well lets see if he is a man of his word

looking at the two teams the US looking stronger on paper doesn't really worry me as that is the case almost every time its played

my concern is we have half the team making their debut

I think we are going to get a good thrashing by the Americans as Davis Love will be well prepared

Ryan Moore could be playing his way into that final place tonight.

What about Kevin Chappell as he is playing

I think Davis Love does not fancy picking Bubba Wstson

Absolute master class from Rory here in the playoff. He likely about to get even richer.

Not quite yet. The playoff continues

Ryan Moore winning could make it easier to be picked for the Ryder Cup team

And still the playoff goes on. Now going to the 15th to try settle it for the 3rd time

I think we might have to play another hole the way things are going

was looking like moore was going to hand the title to rory with that poor 3rd shot but he holes for the 4 and rory follows him in for a 3 to win it

Well done Rory on winning the Fed Ex Cup for the first time

So the players Davis Love could pick as his wildcard for the US Ryder Cup team are

Ryan Moore
Kevin Chappell
Justin Thomas
Bubba Watson

I would go for Ryan Moore as he is red hot form and thats what Davis Love wanted. And it is a pity he did not have another Wildcard so he could pick Kevin Chappell as well, instead of picking the out of form Rickie Fowler who has never won a Ryder Cup match

Good boost for Rory then..

Do you not think we will be well prepared then???

I think we will as well but arnie's death will fire the US up now

I see it as something similar to Seve's death, and the way team Europe looked to the heavens for inspiration from him.

Hmm. Did any of the current US team ever play with Arnold Palmer? Rather different, a number of players in the Europe side after Seve's death had played on tour with him hadnt they?

RIP Arnold Palmer, absolute legend of the game.
