Keegan Bradley has announced that LIV Golf stars such as Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka would potentially earn a spot on his Ryder Cup team – but  under one condition..

Due to LIV not being sanctioned by the Official World Golf Ranking, there’s no straightforward way for LIV players to qualify as one of the six automatic selections for the Ryder Cup, leaving the majors as their only chance to gain points.

However, there’s no denying that reigning US Open champion DeChambeau and five-time major winner Koepka are among America’s top 12 players as Bradley starts planning for next year’s clash with Europe at Bethpage Black. Last year, thanks to his impressive performances at the majors, including his victory at the PGA Championship, Koepka was given a captain’s pick by Zach Johnson for the Ryder Cup in Rome.

But despite their undeniable talent and previous successes in the Ryder Cup, DeChambeau, Dustin Johnson and Patrick Reed were left out, forced to watch from home. The Americans were defeated 16.5-11.5 at Marco Simone Golf and Country Club, with Europe seeming to be a more united team.

Bradley, however, is adamant that politics won’t influence his decision-making when assembling his team next year, but all players will need to demonstrate their worthiness of a pick with their performance over the coming 12 months. Speaking on the Fore Play Podcast, he expressed his desire to have the strongest squad possible.

“I am of the firm belief that I want the best players on the team and next year at this time, who knows what we’re looking at here in terms of LIV and the PGA Tour,” he declared. “I am in no private conversations and I know nothing about the proposed merger of LIV and the PGA Tour. I’m done with trying to figure this out.
