While Tiger is a long shot to make the 2016 Ryder Cup team, Notah Begay III Thinks Woods would be a great assistant captain.

Speaking on an NBC Sports conference call, Begay said that his former college teammate is “giving it a little extra time to heal up before he starts rehabilitation. He’s just spending a lot of time at home and going to soccer games and watching Sam and Charlie play their fall soccer.
“It’s hard. It’s a challenge to be on the couch, but you’ve got to do what you’ve got to do.”
Woods, who turns 40 in December, is not expected to return to competition until January 2016, at the earliest.
“I think he has a clear understanding with where he’s at in regard to his career that the sun is setting,” Begay said. “He’s very fair about where he’s at with his career and his body, and he’s certainly not going to go down without a fight, without trying to do everything he can to get back to a world-class level.”
