World Golf Rankings – 4th September ’18: Sung Hyun Retains Top Position
The 42 year old golfer, Woods has been named as one of three trump card picks for the US team to confront Europe, along with Phil Mickelson and Bryson DeChambeau.
The fourteen time major champ is on the playing side for the 1st time since 2012, having recouped from back surgery and demonstrated an arrival to form.
A little over 365 days ago, Tiger Woods was cleared to begin chipping for the 1st time since a back fusion. Today, he is a no-brainer captains pick for the 2018 Ryder Cup. What a time to be alive.
