Instead of preparing to defend his title at this week’s Tour Championship, Tiger Woods spent Monday dealing with the more mundane tasks of being this year’s U.S. Presidents Cup captain.

Woods tied for 37th on Sunday at the BMW Championship and finished 38th on the playoff points list and outside the top 30 who qualify for this week’s finale at East Lake in Atlanta.

Although he’s played the Tour Championship just once since 2013, last year’s event proved to be a pivotal moment for Woods, who won by two strokes.
