Davis Love III's Wyndham victory will help U.S. in 2016 Ryder Cup
Posted Aug 28, 2015
Davis Love III earned his 21st PGA Tour win Sunday, and that victory may just help the U.S. team win the Ryder Cup in 2016. This in no way implies that Love will make the team and be a playing captain. It goes deeper than that. In 2014, Tom Watson seemed to be the perfect captain for the U.S. team with the Ryder Cup at Gleneagles in Scotland. His four British Open victories gave him instant credibility and most thought his knowledge of how to play the links course could lead the U.S. to victory.
