(Reuters) - Tiger Woods said on Tuesday he rejected the U.S. captaincy for the 2025 Ryder Cup due to his time-consuming role in the PGA Tour's talks with the Saudi backers of LIV Golf but that does not mean he will never lead the team in the future.
Woods, who was the overwhelming favourite to take over as captain, released a statement that was read by PGA of America Senior Director Julius Mason during newly-appointed Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley's introductory news conference.
