The 32-year-old athlete decided to skip the BMW PGA Championship to be with his family. European team captain Luke Donald noted:

“Yes, all is well. I don't think an official announcement was made, but he and his wife welcomed their little one a few weeks ago prematurely. Everything is going extraordinarily well with their baby. He just doesn't want to be that far away. I think it's quite fair.”

Despite the challenging past few months, Straka is confident in his abilities and plans to compete in the Ryder Cup, where the European team recently triumphed 15-13 at Bethpage Black.

Emotions and support

After the final round on Sunday, he shared:

“Yes, it's incredible. The last few months have been somewhat bittersweet. Little Thomas is doing well. He is in the hospital, but everything is fine. You know, these guys, Luke and everyone else, have been just amazing in supporting me.”

 

“Yes, I can't thank everyone enough for the support you've shown me throughout all of this.”

The European team celebrated their victory over the USA, winning the Ryder Cup. Players stayed on the Bethpage Black field for hours after the trophy presentation, continuing the celebration.

They were spotted on video celebrating with champagne during the sunset in New York.
