Scotland's Robert MacIntyre and England's Tyrrell Hatton clinched spots on Team Europe's Ryder Cup squad with their weekend performances.
MacIntyre jumped from fourth to second on the European Ryder Cup points list -- trailing only Northern Ireland's Rory McIlroy -- after claiming second place at the PGA Tour's BMW Championship. Hatton maintained his fifth-place position after sharing 32nd at LIV's event in Indianapolis.McIlroy, MacIntyre, Hatton, England's Tommy Fleetwood and England's Justin Rose are assured of playing for Team Europe captain Luke Donald when the squad defends its Ryder Cup title Sept. 26-28 at Bethpage Black in Farmingdale, N.Y. Donald's squad has one more automatic spot available, which is down to either Ireland's Shane Lowry or Denmark's Rasmus Hojgaard.
Hojgaard plays this week at the British Masters in his final chance to earn Ryder Cup points. If he ties for 29th or better, he will move past Lowry for the final automatic qualification spot. Lowry does not have any points opportunities remaining.
Team USA already has all six of its automatic qualifiers lined up. Scottie Scheffler, J.J. Spaun and Xander Schauffele already owned spots before last weekend's play. Russell Henley, Harris English and Bryson DeChambeau clinched their places on Sunday.
Donald and Team USA captain Keegan Bradley each are expected to announce an additional six captain's picks next week.
