The wild card picks for next years Ryder Cup will be announced a day later than scheduled Paul McGinley has decided.
The European captain was due to announce his selections on 2nd September after the Italian Open which is the final qualifying event had finished, but the Irishman has put this back 24hrs to avoid clashing with the Deutsche Bank Championship which will finish on the Monday.
The thought of doing this is to avoid what happened in 2010 when Paul Casey and Justin Rose were playing in Boston only to find out when they finished that they had been overlooked by Monty for Celtic Manor.
It’s unlikely to make any difference to the selection but is just a matter of respect for the players involved.
