Trevor Immelman named International captain for 2021 Presidents Cup

Former Masters champ and current Golf Channel analyst Trevor Immelman has been named International team captain for the 2021 Presidents Cup.

Immelman will be 41 years old during next year's matches, making him the youngest captain for either team in the event's history. He has won 11 times around the world, including a pair of notable triumphs over Tiger Woods. He beat Woods for his first PGA Tour win at the 2006 Western Open, then again in 2008 when he went wire-to-wire at Augusta National for his lone major victory.

Immelman served as an assistant for countryman Ernie Els at last year's Presidents Cup at Royal Melbourne, and joins Els and Gary Player as South Africans to captain the International squad.
