Bubba to join U.S. Ryder Cup practice session

Bubba Watson will join six members of the U.S. Ryder Cup team for an informal practice session this weekend at Hazeltine National, Golf Channel Insider Tim Rosaforte reported Thursday.

Watson, ranked No. 7 in the world, is not a member of the team. Davis Love III has one remaining captain's pick, to be announced after next week's Tour Championship.

Rosaforte said he asked Love if Watson has not been picked because of any issues with his personality. In a 2015 ESPN poll of 103 anonymous Tour pros, Watson was chosen as the player others would be least likely to help in a fight.
