Team USA have won the Ryder Cup nine times in the modern era, which began in 1979

Jim Furyk will return as captain of the US Ryder Cup team in 2027 when the event takes place in Ireland.

Tiger Woods turned down the role earlier this month after he was arrested and charged with driving under the influence and rolling his car in Florida.

Furyk, 55, previously captained the side in Paris in 2018 when Europe sealed a dominant 17½-10½ victory.

He will become just the fourth US captain in the modern era of the competition, which began in 1979, to lead the team twice.
