The clamour for Tiger Woods to take up the post as Team USA's captain at the next Ryder Cup shows no signs of dissipating with Bernard Gallacher among those backing his cause.
Fuelling the speculation further that he could succeed Zach Johnson after his compatriot oversaw a 16.5-11.5 loss in Rome last year, Woods appeared to speak positively about the prospect recently. Addressing the rumours at the Masters this month, the 15-time major winner was open to engaging in discussions after playing at Augusta.
"They want him to be captain at Bethpage. They need to get back winning and need to redeem themselves after playing so badly in Rome. He would be a great captain because the players of his generation would like to play well for Tiger." Still, Gallacher did concede that a rare four-year commitment from Woods across two events could be out of the question. "He’d be a great home captain for sure. But the trouble is, if he wins in New York, he might then say I don’t want to be a captain in Ireland because I’ve already won it and I don’t want to go there and lose."
