The 2025 U.S. Ryder Cup could include Luke Clanton, as predicted by Brentley Romine on his official X profile on March 01, 2025. The Golf Insider recently dropped this hot take while discussing the U.S. Ryder Cup team.
The sportswriter dropped the name of Clanton, a PGA Tour rookie. Romine has been a golf reporter for NBC Sports and Golf Channel and uses X to connect with fans. On Saturday, he shared his thoughts on the upcoming showdown at Bethpage Black. He said:
"Hot take: Luke Clanton will be on the U.S. Ryder Cup team this year at Bethpage. The Americans countering with their own Ludvig. Will pair with Daniel Berger for 2 points."

Clanton recently made the cut in the 2025 Cognizant Classic, earning him a PGA Tour card. At the end of Round 2, the young junior from Florida State University is tied for 10th on the leaderboard. Clanton shot a 5-under 66 in the final round, carding four consecutive birdies on the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth holes.
His inclusion on the U.S. Ryder Cup team may be a possibility, as Clanton was able to use his PGA Tour privileges at PGA National. He earned his tour card through the PGA Tour University Accelerated program. The initiative awards points for various accomplishments, including making the cut in PGA Tour events.
With the possibility of being selected for Team USA in the 2025 Ryder Cup, Clanton talked about the experience of earning the tour card (quoted by Golf Monthly):
"Yeah, it's been awesome. From the missed cuts to playing well to everything being out here, it's amazing. I kind of said it again, I think this is my fourth start out here, and it feels good to get it done now," Clanton was quoted as saying by Golf Monthly.
"I got that question asked about 19 points a ton, and it was kind of nerve-racking, everyone saying to get your Tour card, which I love, and the support has been amazing."
