Ian Poulter told the new Netflix golf series it would be “devastating” if he misses out on the Ryder Cup captaincy as he revealed his soul-searching before joining LIV Golf.
The Team Europe legend will be among LIV stars who will learn if they can keep playing on the DP World Tour at an arbitration panel hearing starting in London today. Poulter, dubbed the Postman for delivering Ryder Cup points, had been lined up to captain Europe in 2025 before joining the Saudi-breakaway league.
He hinted last month he might refuse to play in Rome even if he is allowed to qualify. But Poulter, 47, has taken a starring role in the new eight-part series called Full Swing - golf’s answer to Formula One’s Drive to Survive - giving behind-the-scenes access to the tour.
