-- Keegan Bradley still has two FedEx Cup playoffs tournaments left to make his case for becoming the first playing captain for the U.S. Ryder Cup team in 62 years. Bradley, 39, will be the youngest American captain since Arnold Palmer was a playing captain in 1963 at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta. Bradley is currently 10th in the U.S. team points standings after winning the Travelers Championship, a signature event, on June 22. "Fortunately, I'm not in that predicament," Cantlay said when asked if he would choose himself as a playing captain. He would probably hand over some of the duties to former Ryder Cup captain Jim Furyk, one of his five vice captains.
