Zach Johnson has left the door open when discussing the possibility of selecting LIV golfers to play for the United States in the Ryder Cup.

The PGA Tour, DP World Tour, and LIV Golf are mending fences, but LIV Golf players can only earn qualification points in PGA majors.

LIV golfers who were suspended by the PGA and DP World Tour will be allowed to apply for reinstatement after the conclusion of the 2023 season.

"It's not PGA of America. So the individuals that are Americans that play on other tours that are not the PGA Tour, they could play, I mean, technically the Latin Tour or the Asian Tour or wherever.

"More times than not they're going to be members of the PGA of America for a number of reasons. Our liability insurance is number one and some other benefits."

"These guys that left the PGA Tour that had status and left to play on that other tour, the LIV Tour, they're still members of the PGA of America, so they are still able to garner points," Johnson said. 

"They're able to play in the PGA Championship as a result because that's what the PGA of America runs. Obviously, technically, they can still be a part of Team USA."

Johnson didn't explicitly say LIV Golf members were welcome on Team USA, but he implied they could be selected.

He also spoke about how Brooks Koepka, currently ranked 12th in the world, has a good chance of making the team after his performances in the Masters and PGA Championship.

"Brooks is third on the list. The top six earn their berth after the BMW Championship in mid-August in Chicago. So after that Sunday, the top six are solidified, and then we make our six picks."

The captains will wait until mid-August to make their selections for the Ryder Cup, which will be televised starting September 29.
