Steve Stricker Wants Tiger Woods to Serve as Ryder Cup Assistant

United States Ryder Cup captain Steve Stricker said Wednesday he's approached Tiger Woods regarding a potential assistant role on the team in September.

"I've talked to [Woods]. I don't know if we are there yet to commit to him being there," Stricker said, per ESPN's Bob Harig. "He's still got a lot going on, and his spirits are great, though, as of late.

"We were on a Zoom call with him just last week, and he seems like he's in a better place. He's still got some ways to go."

Woods is currently recovering from a car accident in Southern California from this past February.
