MIAMI: The United States are trimming their captain’s selections for the 2014 team to face holders Europe from four to three players, Ryder Cup captain Tom Watson said yesterday.
“Giving our players one more opportunity to earn a spot on merit, I believe, is the right thing to do,” Watson was quoted as saying on the official Ryder Cup website (www.rydercup.com).
Watson will take the top nine players from the Ryder Cup standings and make his three picks ahead of the 40th Ryder Cup. REUTERS
