Europe’s squad for the Ryder Cup is now complete as skipper Luke Donald revealed his six captain’s picks.
Jon Rahm, Shane Lowry, Sepp Straka, Viktor Hovland, Ludvig Aberg, and Matt Fitzpatrick made the cut.
Nicolai Hojgaard failed to retain his place in the Europe Ryder Cup teamGettyThe sextet join automatic qualifiers Rory McIlroy, Bob MacIntyre, Tommy Fleetwood, Justin Rose, Tyrrell Hatton and Rasmus Hojgaard in the team as they look to defend the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black.
It meant there was no room for Nicolai Hojgaard, who was the only player not to retain their spot in the European team from their triumph in 2023.
England’s Harry Hall, who had been the fifth-best golfer from Europe over the last three months per Data Golf, was another who agonisingly missed the cut.
The 28-year-old even had the equal fourth-best performance among the European contingent at the recent Tour Championship, which was won by Fleetwood.
Hall finished T17 at East Lake thanks to a score of nine-under, which was bettered by only Fleetwood, Lowry and Hovland.
Unfortunately for Hall, his snub didn’t come out of the blue given he had not been asked to undergo a fitting for a Ryder Cup uniform, an act typically associated with those who are, at the very least, a chance of making the team.
