Who are the 2022 Presidents Cup assistant captains?

A eight-time Presidents Cup participant. A former Ryder Cup captain. A future Ryder Cup captain. And a first-timer assistant.

Davis Love III, the captain of the 2022 Presidents Cup at Quail Hollow Club in his home state of North Carolina, has an experienced group of assistants but also a newcomer getting his first taste of international competition as an assistant.

The biennial competition is Sept. 22-25 and pits a 12-man U.S. squad against a 12-man international team (minus the European nations). The Americans lead the all-time series 11-1-1 and has never lost when the matches are staged in the U.S.

Here’s a look at the four U.S. assistant captains:

Fred Couples won 15 times on the PGA Tour, including the 1992 Masters, and has won 13 times on the PGA Tour Champions. This will be the eighth time Couples has been a part of the Presidents Cup as a player, captain or assistant captain. Couples was a player when the U.S. lost its only match in the lopsided series, in 1998 at Royal Melbourne Golf Club in Australia. He captained the Americans to three consecutive victories starting in 2009. This is the fourth time Couples will serve as an assistant.

He has played in the Presidents Cup four times and was an assistant to Tiger Woods in 2019, when the U.S. came from behind to beat the International Team, 16-14.
