SHEBOYGAN, Wis. (AP) — You’d never know Bubba Watson had just lost the PGA Championship.

Watson insisted he was more thrilled to earn a spot on his first Ryder Cup team than disappointed at coming up short against Martin Kaymer in a three-hole playoff at Whistling Straits on Sunday.

“I’m as happy as can be,” Watson said. “I made the Ryder Cup, that’s all I care about.”

The Ryder Cup is Oct. 1-3 at Celtic Manor in Wales. Watson wound up third in the standings, behind Phil Mickelson and Hunter Mahan.
