Presidents Cup captain’s pick snubs: The biggest surprises on both sides
The Presidents Cup captain’s picks have been announced, and there were some notable snubs on both sides.
For the United States, the biggest surprise was the omission of Patrick Cantlay. Cantlay is ranked No. 4 in the world and has been one of the most consistent players on the PGA Tour over the past few years. He was a member of the 2019 Presidents Cup team and played well, going 2-1-1.
Another surprising snub for the United States was Daniel Berger. Berger is ranked No. 12 in the world and has won two PGA Tour events this season. He was also a member of the 2019 Presidents Cup team.
For the International team, the biggest surprise was the omission of Matt Fitzpatrick. Fitzpatrick is ranked No. 15 in the world and has been one of the most consistent players on the DP World Tour over the past few years. He was a member of the 2019 Presidents Cup team and played well, going 2-1-1.
