The Spaniard, who later today will be bidding to win the Deutsche Bank Championship in Boston, said: "I thought Paul Casey was pretty much a lock [for a captain's pick] and because of the way Darren has been playing lately, I thought maybe he'd get the other one."

But Garcia, who along with double major winner Padraig Harrington will spearhead the team to take on the United States in Kentucky, was careful not to rock the boat.

"Casey and [Ian] Poulter are going to be good assets for Europe," he said. "I think we're all looking forward to it and all happy that both Ian and Paul are on the team."

Garcia was going into today's final round in Boston sharing third place with Fiji's Vijay Singh. They were three strokes behind Canadian leader Mike Weir, who was on 17 under par, one stroke ahead of Colombian Camilo Villegas. Both Poulter and Casey missed the halfway cut.
