I’d probably of taken Meronk over Lowry, Lowry not played the best this year.

It does question the qualification process when AM out qualified NH on both lists....But..
In Luke we trust...

Very surprised Meronk hasn't made it as well.
Harsh to pick one Hojgaard and not the other as well.
I couldn't tell you which one of them is the better golfer really??

I thought the Hojgaards came as a pair, so you get two for the pick of one.
Still cant figure what Hojgaard has over Meronk. Id be a very unhappy Meronk if I were he.

I think as soon as Aberg won yesterday he was in but Meronk 3rd in the RTD as well as ahead in the points list , hits it just as far as Hojgaard - certainly very risky

Do players have to play in a least one match before the singles? Might be good to get the rookies in early to stop the nerves taking too much of a hold

A player has no right to be unhappy at not being picked. They should have played better and guaranteed qualification.

What may have swayed things in his favour is that he's played decently on the PGA Tour as well as DP....
I still think the bigger risk is Shane and, although he qualified, Bob....

Erm... Meronk finished higher in the rankings than Hojgaard
He’ll put Rory and Aberg out first on day one is my prediction….

I wonder if Meronk is moving over to LIV, and that has affected the selection?

Didn't qualify by rights though. The only ones who have a right to go are those who get in by qualifying. The rest are leaving it to chance.Erm... Meronk finished higher in the rankings than Hojgaard

No, he said he enjoys real golf over 72 holes. They took that to mean the RC doesn't suit him, rather than LIV is too much of a joke.

I would have had Meronk before Lowry.
Is Aberg the Theo Walcott, 2006 World Cup, pick? Huge gamble.
Hopefully he practices well and Luke doesn't do a Mark James and hang him out to dry by waiting until the Singles for his first match.

Think he was player of the year twice, as Luke said on the YouTube stream the only guys who compared to him on the college scene in the last 20 years are Rahm and Hovland. He’s going to be a top 10 player in the world pretty soon and a fixture of this event for years.
He’s got an amazing swing, hits it miles and his irons are ridiculously good. I was hoping he would get picked from back in June, get him the experience early as he’s going to play in a load of them.
I also like the Hojgaard pick as Europe really needs to blood some younger guys that are the future. Again he was one I was hoping would make it.

With the way he drives the ball and flushes his irons I think he may play more than people think.Is Aberg the Theo Walcott, 2006 World Cup, pick? Huge gamble.
