CARMEL, Ind. -- The Ryder Cup has been a big sub-plot to the FedEx Cup playoffs to date, with European captain Darren Clarke making his at-large picks last week and United States captain Davis Love III set to make three of his four selections on Monday following the BMW Championship.
The criteria for making each team was set long ago, which doesn't quell the discussion especially as it relates to Europe -- which will see two high-ranking players sit out the matches basically because of their affiliation -- or lack thereof -- with the European Tour.
