The U.S. will face Europe in the 2023 Ryder Cup beginning Sept. 29 at Marco Simone Golf and Country Club in Rome.

You get one of these picks, the veteran golfer who you simply trust at the Ryder Cup, especially going overseas in Europe. The golfer who fits with the team culture — which is far more important than some realize — and who offers the most upside despite lesser results.

The 37-year-old came on strong down the stretch, winning the Travelers and advancing to East Lake, and rinsed his emotions publicly, saying in Chicago two weeks ago that he thought about making the Ryder Cup team at every waking minute. But he needed at least one win, at minimum, in the playoffs to bolster his realistic chances. At the end of the day, Bradley missed the cut in two majors and finished T23 and T29 in the others. He’s posted one top-15 in a major since 2015.
