Jim Furyk named US Ryder Cup captain; immediately appoints vice-captain

"This is such an honour. I'm actually a little overwhelmed."

Jim Furyk has been named as the United States captain for the 2018 Ryder Cup in France.

The PGA of America has announced the 46-year-old, a veteran of nine playing appearances, will succeed Davis Love as the US seek to defend the trophy they won at Hazeltine last October.
