As captain of the home team, Luke Donald has the final say in how Marco Simone is set up and the order of play
In the eternal city steeped in history, at a Ryder Cup packed with nearly a century of golf, European captain Luke Donald figures his best bet lies with modern-day statistical data.
And that was about all there was to say in an opening news conference of the captains, a day of light practice, rest for the Americans who flew overnight and high hopes for both teams. Johnson was quick to point out Koepka was part of the U.S. scouting trip to Marco Simone earlier in the month. DeChambeau missed the cut in the Masters, finished six back in the PGA Championship, 11 shots behind in the U.S. Open and 20 shots behind in the British Open. That put him at No. 54 in the Ryder Cup standings.
