Quick Response from both Captains for 7th and 8th picks
Ben Thomas has selected hometown favorite Michael Bechert with the 7th overall pick. Michael returned to Indianapolis after a 10 year stint in St. Louis. He grew up with these two golf courses in his backyard but no word yet on how often he has been able to hit the links since he has been back. Known more for his apparel than his golf game, Michael will be sure to turn a few heads come July. Bechert joins Travis Diener, Neil Fisher and Steve Holdren on Team Europe.
Jones was quick to respond with the 8th overall pick, selecting controversial golfer Al Foster. Al comes into this years Cup with a chip on his shoulder after learning he would only earn 1.5 points instead of 2 because the Cup had already been clinched. 1.5 points was still the highest point total he earned since 2011 when he earned 3.5. Al joins Jeff Berenz, Jon Halfmann and Tom Berenz on Team USA.
Ball is in your court, Captain Thomas.
