Has Patrick Cantlay edged out Lucas Glover despite the FedEx Cup loss?

Golf is unpredictable. Looking at the FedEx Cup game in Memphis, Glover pulled off a fantastic shot in the closely fought playoff to take home the winner’s check. However, it looks like it’s his opponent who has stamped his place in the Ryder Cup.

With his second-place finish, Patrick Cantlay has earned and secured a spot on the Ryder Cup USA team, which will compete in Rome next month. The 31-year-old’s consistent performances have secured his placement, and with only one qualifying event remaining, Cantlay’s place in the top six is secure.

Can Glover make it to the Ryder Cup?

When you take a step back and examine the full season, a startling narrative emerges. Despite Glover’s spectacular win at the FedEx St. Jude, his chances of making the Ryder Cup remain remote. Glover is still ranked 16th, raising questions about the selection procedure. You’d think that winning such a large tournament would secure his spot in the Ryder Cup, but he’s still not in the top spots.

On the other hand, Patrick Cantlay’s steadiness throughout the season shines brightly. Even though he did not win last weekend, but his overall record is impressive.

Glover can still harbor a dream for a ticket to Rome. While he may not be able to capture an automatic place, his form might be a considerable factor when it comes to the captain’s picks.

Glover can always look back at the FedEx Cup with pride, but the Ryder Cup, for now, remains a goal yet to be achieved.
