World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler leads the charge for the red, white and blue, flanked by recent major championship winners such as J.J. Spaun, Xander Schauffele and Bryson DeChambeau. The remaining automatic qualifiers are Russell Henley and Harris English, who both enjoyed consistent campaigns to lock their spots among the six automatic qualifiers on the roster.

While half of the team is sured up, the other half is a bit of a mystery. Numerous candidates have worthy résumés, including the headman himself, who could become the first playing captain in the Ryder Cup since Arnold Palmer and the first ever to hold such a role when he used a captain's pick on himself.
