Tiger ‘still talking’ about Ryder Cup job


LOUISVILLE (AFP) — Tiger Woods remains in talks with PGA of America about being captain of the 2025 US Ryder Cup team, but wonders if he has time for the job’s responsibilities.
The 48-year-old American, a 15-time major winner, still struggles to walk 72 holes at tournaments after suffering severe leg injuries in a 2021 car crash.
But Woods was 60th at last month’s Masters and is playing this week at the PGA Championship at Valhalla, so it’s still a possibility he would guide the Americans next year at Bethpage Black against holders Europe.
Woods said last month at the Masters that he and PGA of America chief executive officer Seth Waugh were in talks about the captaincy.
“We’re still talking. There’s nothing that has been confirmed yet,” Woods said Tuesday. “We’re still working on what that might look like. Also whether or not I have the time to do it.”
Among the things taking up time now for Woods is his role on the PGA Tour Policy Board negotiating subcommittee on a possible merger deal with Saudi Arabia’s Public Information Fund, financial backers of rival LIV Golf.
“I’m dedicating so much time to what we’re doing with the PGA Tour, I don’t want to not fulfill the role of the captaincy if I can’t do it,” Woods said.
