Zach Johnson relishing ‘beautiful opportunity’ to end USA drought in Europe

Zach Johnson is relishing the challenge of securing a first American win on European soil for 30 years after being appointed captain for the 2023 Ryder Cup.

The United States stormed to a record 19-9 victory at Whistling Straits last year, but have not lifted the trophy away from home since a 15-13 victory at The Belfry in 1993.

Johnson has been handed the task of ending that barren run at Marco Simone Golf and Country Club in Rome next year after serving as an assistant captain to Steve Stricker in Wisconsin and also to Jim Furyk in Paris in 2018.
