Trevor Immelman names four International Presidents Cup assistants

International Team captain Trevor Immelman announced his four captain's assistants for the 2022 Presidents Cup, scheduled at Quail Hollow Club later this year.

The South African golfer will lead the International team in the rescheduled Presidents Cup set at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina, from 20-25 September.

Immelman chose Canada's Mike Weir, Korea's K.J. Choi, Australia's Geoff Ogilvy and Colombia's Camilo Villegas as his assistants.

Weir will make his third appearance as captain's assistant after serving for Price at the 2017 Presidents Cup and in 2019 for Els. The Canadian has competed in five Presidents Cups (2000, 2003, 2005, 2007, 2009) and was team-mates with Immelman in 2005 and 2007.

"In addition to being captain's assistants together in 2019 at Royal Melbourne, I have had the pleasure of being team-mates with Mike on two occasions, as well as playing together on TOUR for many years," said Immelman.

"The history we share gives me complete confidence in stating that few people work harder than Mike. I can't wait to see the impact he makes in those pivotal moments when leadership and tenacity are needed during the week."

Choi returns as an assistant for the third time after serving as captain's assistant to Nick Price when the Presidents Cup made its debut in Korea in 2015 and to Ernie Els at Royal Melbourne in 2019.

"It is an honour and a privilege to be selected again to be a part of the International Team as a captain's assistant," said Choi.

"After knowing Trevor for so many years, it is clear to me that his passion and dedication will make for a remarkable captaincy, and it makes me proud to join him in Charlotte. I look forward to working together as a team to bring unity among our nationalities
