Overview

• Bradley named Collin Morikawa, Justin Thomas, Patrick Cantlay, Cameron Young, Sam Burns and Ben Griffin as his six captain’s picks, confirming he would not select himself.
• The choices complete a 12-man roster with automatic qualifiers Scottie Scheffler, J.J. Spaun, Xander Schauffele, Russell Henley, Harris English and Bryson DeChambeau.
• Two rookies—Young and Griffin—join a mix of veterans and in-form players for Bethpage Black from September 26-28.
• Reaction is split, with Golf Channel’s Rex Hoggard saying performance metrics supported Bradley as a player, while Brandel Chamblee praised the selfless call as potentially galvanizing.
• Bradley pushed back on Rory McIlroy’s view that a modern playing captain is unworkable, citing the rarity since Arnold Palmer in 1963, and GOLF reports Tiger Woods has informally advised him as Europe’s Luke Donald readies his six picks for Monday.
