Johnson has to consider players who have big names, big games, and who have defected to a rival league that has offered them generational wealth just for joining.There's still plenty of time for this to sort itself out. With three majors and five $20 million designated events to come, the US team won't become clear for another two months.
That doesn't account for team unity, whether to bring in players who "turned their back" — the phrase Tiger Woods used last July — on the tour they now want to represent. Johnson's name appeared in recent days for disparaging remarks about PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan, prompting a swift and emphatic denial that he had said anything other than, "No comment."
