#7 Zach Johnson (3,166.216 Ryder Cup Points)

Zach Johnson is another veteran i expect to make the team. He is turning 40 soon and continues to compete at the highest level. Zach is currently ranked 18th in the world. Zach Johnson is usually good for a win a year and has yet to record one this year. His last win was in 2015 at The Open Championship. Zach also has an impressive green jacket on his resume with a win at the Masters in 2007. He doesn’t make many mistakes and grinds through each round. I’d be surprised if he isn’t on the squad.

Next: Patrick Reed
