Wyndham Clark talks about possible including in Team USA for the 2025 Ryder Cup
As per the latest rankings, Wyndham Clark remains out of the top 12 professional golfers for Team USA. While talking on the Sky Sports Podcast, the former Captain expressed gratitude for playing for his country.
Talking about his experience over the years, Wyndham Clark said (as quoted by Sky Sports):
"I've been fortunate enough to be part of Team USA for three events now, Presidents Cup, Olympics, and Ryder Cup - but none of them have been played on US soil and none of them have I heard people really cheering for me. It's been more boos and stuff against me, so I really want to have that experience."
Since there are around 150 days before the showdown starts at Bethpage Black, Clark expressed hope for his spot on the team while praising Captain Bradley.
"I really love our captain, Keegan Bradley. He and I are pretty good buds, so I'm just happy for him."
"And I think he's going to do an amazing job. I'm hoping I'm one of the 12 guys. Obviously, as of right now, I've probably got to play better golf to earn my spot, but I'm hoping I make it."
The 45th edition of Ryder Cup will take place from September 26, Friday, to September 28, Sunday of this year.
