Captain's pick: Rickie Fowler has earned a wild card for the Ryder Cup (Picture: Getty Images)
Rickie Fowler, Matt Kuchar and JB Holmes have been named as the US Ryder Cup captain's picks by Davis Love III.
It means there is currently no place on the team for two-time Masters champion and world No 7 Bubba Watson.
Kuchar and JB Holmes both finished joint fourth at the BMW Championship at Crooked Stick on Sunday but Fowler could only manage 59th, which cost him his place at Atlanta's East Lake Golf Club for the season finale Tour Championship and left him sweating over his place.
However, Love III put him out of his misery with a phone call to leave Watson, who tied 20th at the BMW Championship, the one anxiously waiting with one more pick to come after the Tour Championship in a fortnight.
