United States captain Zach Johnson has selected Justin Thomas, Brooks Koepka, Jordan Spieth, Collin Morikawa, Sam Burns and Rickie Fowler as his wild cards for the 44th Ryder Cup in Rome.<\/p>\n

Thomas failed to qualify for the FedEx Cup play-offs and admitted it had been \u201chumiliating and embarrassing\u201d to card a second round of 81 in the US Open in June.<\/p>\n

The two-time major winner also shot an opening 82 in the Open at Royal Liverpool, but has still been selected by Johnson ahead of the likes of Keegan Bradley and Cameron Young.<\/p>\n

The wild cards join automatic qualifiers Scottie Scheffler, Wyndham Clark, Brian Harman, Patrick Cantlay, Max Homa and Xander Schauffele on Johnson\u2019s team, which will attempt to win on European soil for the first time since 1993.<\/p>\n

\u201cJustin Thomas is one of the most talented players on the PGA Tour in my opinion,\u201d Johnson said. \u201cHe has been, without question, the heart and soul of US Ryder Cup teams, our emotional leader.<\/p>\n

\u201cOverall (he has) a fantastic Ryder Cup record. His passion for the Ryder Cup is very evident. In my mind he is born for this and you just don\u2019t leave JT at home.\u201d<\/p>\n

Koepka, who is the only LIV Golf League player to make the team, slipped out of the automatic qualifying places in the final event, having finished second in the Masters and won the US PGA Championship at Oak Hill.<\/p>\n

\u201cA five-time major champion, he is built in my mind for the biggest of stages and there\u2019s no bigger stage than the Ryder Cup,\u201d Johnson said.<\/p>\n
