MELBOURNE (Reuters) - Some golf fans thought they had seen the last of Patrick Reed in U.S. colours after his extraordinary outburst in the wake of last year's Ryder Cup but Tiger Woods has put history aside to include 'Captain America' in his Presidents Cup team.

Woods named Reed -- and himself -- among his captain's picks for next month's tournament at Royal Melbourne, opting for the incendiary 29-year-old over the more experienced and measured personality of Rickie Fowler.
