In a sign of what to expect over the next year and a half before the 2021 Presidents Cup is played, Trevor Immelman touched base with Ernie Els on Monday just hours before he was scheduled to be named the next International team captain.
As Immelman explained during a conference call with reporters on Tuesday, Els probably won’t have an official role with the team next year at Quail Hollow Club but the legacy that he started last year in Australia will continue.
Much like the American task force following the Ryder Cup loss in 2014, Els – and now Immelman – planned to focus less on building a winning team and more on building a winning team room.
