American Team Struggles Against European Ryder Cup Dominance

The American team lost the Ryder Cup again. But there is good news, people are not talking about another task force. The way to improve is not clear. It is as confusing as it was in 2014.

Ted Bishop chose Tom Watson as captain. This did not work out well for the team. Phil Mickelson criticized the captain after the loss. This led to the creation of a task force.

Mickelson was happy after the task force finished its work. He hoped it would help the team for many years. The Americans have won two of five Ryder Cups since. This is better than winning two of the past ten.

The European team has continuity, and they have the Ryder Cup. The task force was replaced by a committee. The past captain will replace his predecessor on the committee. But there is an idea to bring back Bradley as captain.

The PGA of America owns the Ryder Cup event. They make a lot of money when it is in America. The PGA of America might give the Ryder Cup management to the PGA Tour. This could help the American team.
