The press conference will take place from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. ET at the Home of the PGA of America in Frisco, Texas, and will be available on the Ryder Cup USA social channels.

It will also be available on YouTube on Golf Channel and RyderCup.com. Radio listeners can tune in to SiriusXM Radio Channel 92 to hear the captain's picks.

It is pertinent to note that 2023 Open Championship winner Brian Harman, 2023 US Open winner Wyndham Clark, current World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, 2022 BMW Championship winner Patrick Cantlay, 2023 Farmers Insurance winner Max Homa and 7x PGAT winner Xander Schauffele have already reserved their spots in the US Ryder Cup team.

The 2023 Ryder Cup will take place from September 29 to October 1 at the Marco Simone Golf & Country in Rome, Italy.

US Ryder Cup potential selections

The PGA Tour golfers have had exceptional performances all season, making it difficult for captain Zach Johnson to choose his team's top six players. Team USA is headed to Italy to win on European territory for the first time in 30 years.

Earlier this month, Johnson appeared on Golf.com's Subpar podcast where he spoke about his potential six picks. He said:

"It's going to be hard. There's an ample stable of American studs that we can pick from. I firmly believe we can take a number of different tandems and scenarios with us and have a great outcome.

"I don’t need to take the 12 best American players because that’s hard to pinpoint. I need to take the 12 best players that make the best team. That’s going to be on me," he added.

Brooks Koepka, Rickie Fowler, Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas, Cameron Young, Collin Morikawa, and Justin Thomas are the leading candidates for the captain's picks.
