Keegan Bradley hopes a selfless act can turn into US points after the Ryder Cup captain resisted strong temptation to combine his role with playing duties at Bethpage next month.

- Ewan Murray

Bradley had finished ahead of Burns, Cantlay and Young on the US points table. The 39-year-old is the No 11-ranked golfer in the world and eighth among Americans, but ultimately he decided it would be either unreasonable or unnecessary to perform two jobs at once.
