Hunter Mahan has backed Tiger Woods to become United States captain for the next two Ryder Cups, with the American, who represented the USA at the Ryder Cup three times in 2008, 2010 and 2014, believing Woods is the man to reverse the Americans’ fortunes after their 16.5-12.5 defeat to Europe at Marco Simone under Zach Johnson’s leadership last year.
Several names have been linked to the Team USA captaincy ahead of the event returning to the States at Bethpage Black in 2025, with Woods seemingly at the top of the list.
