A few readers forwarded Michael Buteau's story on Davis Love lobbying for the Ryder Cup captaincy in 2012 and initially I didn't pay much attention, but on further reflection, it is a bit odd that the man who seemed to be a lock for the job is making sure to keep his name out there. Could the PGA be flirting with a certain former captain who really wanted the job again in 2010?
“If you asked me two months ago, I’d have said no, I don’t want to take any chance on screwing up playing,” said Love, who has a 9-12-5 record as a player. “But now I look at it, I don’t want to take any chances on not getting to be the Ryder Cup captain.”
The PGA of America, which oversees the U.S. team, has no specific timeframe on selecting its next captain.
