The likelihood of Tiger Woods captaining the US in the next two Ryder Cups has increased after the 48‑year‑old confirmed talks over the role will conclude after the Masters.
It has always been assumed Woods will lead his country at Adare Manor in County Limerick in 2027. However, the PGA of America has also given the 15-times major winner the opportunity to take the captaincy at Bethpage next year. Woods had shut down discussion of the Ryder Cup until Tuesday at Augusta National, where he gave the clearest indication yet that he will soon be announced as the US captain.
