PGA Tour Head Napa, California, this week, where ten of the twelve members will be followed by Rider Cup in the window championship at the North Course in Resort Silvero.

The larger story can be two absences: Xander Schauffeles and Brison Dechambeau. Schauffele did not explain his decision to skip the event, although the rumors suggest to the family matters.

He asked in mid-August during the BMV championship if he planned to play in Napa, Schauffele said:

“I don’t know how many guys applied or not, but I wouldn’t say that there was an expectation to play. Many of us want to play just to be fresh, they have broken down and longer breaks.” We will have a greater break. “

Dehambeau was dealing with a problem for several weeks later in Liv Golf Indianapolis, saying:

“It depends on the tour and their decision to make it. It is up to them if we do not allow us to gather as a team and play.”

Decambeau remains unable for PGA Tour Mages as a member of Liva Live Live, although he expressed his desire to compete in Napa:

“It just shows you … Yes, I won’t say that. It’s a scenario that’s unhappy, and I wish it was different, but Liv was ready to let me go.”

The other ten members Rider Cup form the strongest field in the history of the championship window. Scottie Scheffler, JJ Spaun, Harris English, Patrick Cantlai, Russell Henley, Collin Morikava, Justin Thomas, Ben Griffin, Sam Burns and Cameron Young are on the field. The defense counsel of the Patton Kizzire champion is shaded in “Power Ranking”, with each player Rider Cup, which is listed as a favorite.
