Former major champion Geoff Ogilvy believes that leaving Justin Thomas out of the US Ryder Cup team would be a catastrophic mistake and "the worst call ever." Thomas is one of several players vying for one of six captain's picks from Zach Johnson to secure his spot in the biennial event outside Rome.

While Thomas has struggled with form over the past year, failing to qualify for the FedEx Cup Playoffs and shooting poor rounds at major tournaments, his impressive record in previous Ryder Cups and Presidents Cups works in his favor. Ogilvy argues that Thomas' match-play credentials make him the best head-to-head match player in the world, and his leadership qualities on the course make him an invaluable asset to the team.

Despite his recent slump in performance, Thomas has committed to playing in the Fortinet Championship in September, just two weeks before the Ryder Cup. Ogilvy, along with Rory McIlroy and other golf professionals, supports Thomas' inclusion in the team, emphasizing his ability to inspire and lead his teammates to victory.

The final decision rests with Zach Johnson, who will announce his six captain's picks on August 29. American golf fans eagerly await the answer to the question: Will Justin Thomas make the US Ryder Cup team?
