A day after finishing the year outside of the top-8 qualifiers for this year’s U.S. Presidents Cup team, Tiger Woods was asked his thoughts on potential captain’s picks. Specifically, he was asked about making himself a pick.

“That's up to myself and the vice captains and eight guys [who qualified for the team],” Woods said Monday during a conference call. “I'm going to keep an open line of communication with my players and my vice captains to find the four guys that they want to go down there with and who best fits the team.”

Woods said it is important that players who have already qualified for the matches in December as well as his four potential picks remain competitive this fall but that doesn’t necessarily mean playing more PGA Tour events.
