A two-time Vice Buggy Driver and quiet member of the Task Force has patiently waited his turn. And now Doug Ferguson reports that Zach Johnson will lead Team USA in the 2023 edition set for Marco Simone Golf Club outside Rome.
Kyle Porter pointed out this neat fact should Johnson lead the team to victory.
Johnson would join Jack Nicklaus, Sam Snead and Seve Ballesteros as the only golfers to win a Masters at Augusta National, an Open at St. Andrews and captain a winning Ryder Cup team if the U.S. goes on to win in 2023.
This reminds me of two things: how great it would be to have a Ryder Cup at the Old Course, and the Captain’s race for 2025 is wide open now.
