ST. LOUIS – Sunday’s deadline to qualify for the U.S. Ryder Cup team came and went without any changes, which was not a huge surprise considering that Nos. 9 and 10 on the point list, Bryson DeChambeau and Phil Mickelson, respectively, both missed the cut at the PGA Championship.
There was, however, a shakeup on the European side, with Ian Poulter climbing from 12th on the Continent’s list to eighth, bumping Paul Casey out of the automatic qualifiers; although, the Casey has until Sept. 2 to move back into the top 8 and qualify for the team.
