Haas tabs son, Mickelson with Presidents Cup picks

Good news for the Haas family: This week’s vacation won’t be the least bit awkward.

On Tuesday, U.S. Presidents Cup captain Jay Haas named his son, Bill, as one of his two captain’s picks for the Oct. 8-11 matches in South Korea. Phil Mickelson was the other selection for the Americans, keeping alive his streak of 21 consecutive teams made.

International captain Nick Price picked Steven Bowditch, a winner this season at the Byron Nelson, and hometown favorite Sang-Moon Bae to fill out the 12-man roster.
