Tony Jacklin believes Tiger Woods is destined to become the next US Ryder Cup captain and says the golf icon will ultimately see it as his duty to lead Team USA.The Ryder Cup legend says the biggest question ahead of the 2027 contest is whether Woods is prepared to take on the challenge of trying to wrestle the trophy back from Europe.He said: I think the big story is, does Tiger really want to expose himself and do it (captain USA)? Tiger must know that, going into the matches in Ireland, Europes going to be the overwhelming favourite. So does he want to put himself up to get his backside kicked?TRENDINGStoriesVideosYour SayI think its his duty to do it. If he could do it and pull it off, he'd be King of the hill forever.Jacklin has also backed Luke Donald as the right man to lead Team Europe again in 2027, describing him as the obvious choice.

Hes done such an excellent job over the past two years. A number of us thought Justin Rose might be ready to take on the mantle, but hes obviously playing some of the best golf of his life.As soon as he declined the opportunity, Luke was really the obvious choice. It was just a question as to whether he wanted to take it on again. Thankfully, he said yes. I think that was the right answer, and I think were going to be in a very strong position again.Jacklin was equally emphatic when assessing Donalds impact as captain so far: Hes done such an excellent job over the last two years as captain. "He embraced it the way he needed to. He became everybodys best friend. He was totally thorough, and we won on both occasions.Hes the sweetheart of a guy, and hes got a lovely way about him of dealing with the media. Hes a great, perfect guy for the job. I wish him well again, and I hope he has a trifecta.Jacklin also gave an insight into what the public rarely sees from a successful Ryder Cup captain: You cant play for these players, but you can become their friend. "You become simpatico with the pressure that they get put under and use all of your influence to help them as much as you can.He also pointed to Europes enduring unity as one of the key ingredients behind the teams modern Ryder Cup success. Jacklin, now one of Londons leading Motivational speakers , said: Team unity is a huge thing, and I believe, with an absolute passion, that we never have a problem with team unity in Europe.Once a European gets on that Ryder Cup team, he has an opportunity to show that just because their background doesnt necessarily equate to what the American counterparts background has been, that doesnt make America any better.The Ryder Cup has become a wonderful way for Europe to show that theyre up for anything. Theyre just as good, if not better, than the Americans. It puts America on the defensive all the time.Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter
