“The 2027 Ryder Cup was supposed to be Tiger Woods’ to captain.”
INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE
The evidence directly contradicts the claim. Web search results indicate that Tiger Woods declined the captaincy for 2025, and later, Keegan Bradley was selected for the 2025 captaincy, not Tiger Woods. Furthermore, the 2027 captaincy was assigned to Jim Furyk, not Tiger Woods.

“When Woods got into his latest car crash and left the country to attend rehab, that ended any chance of him captaining in ‘27.”
INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE
Although the claim relates to Tiger Woods' car crash, the specific connection that this event *ended any chance* of him captaining in 2027 is not stated as a definitive fact in the provided evidence. The evidence only confirms he declined the captaincy for 2025 and later, Jim Furyk was named for 2027, but it does not provide a definitive timeline or causal link regarding the 2027 captaincy based on the accident.

“Bradley said he and all the other players are anxiously awaiting Woods to captain a U.S. Ryder Cup team.”
INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE
No evidence was found in the web search results to support the claim that Keegan Bradley and other players are anxiously awaiting Tiger Woods to captain the U.S. Ryder Cup team. The evidence only discusses Woods declining the captaincy, not the players' collective anticipation.
