Woods, Els to captain Australia Presidents Cup

Tiger Woods and Ernie Els agreed to be captains for the 2019 Presidents Cup in Melbourne, Australia, according to two people involved in the tournament.

They are expected to be introduced Tuesday at the Arnold Palmer Invitational near Orlando, Florida.

Woods has been heavily involved in team event while not playing in recent years because of back injuries. He was an assistant to Steve Stricker in the Presidents Cup last year, and he already has agreed to be a vice captain at the Ryder Cup this fall in France for the second straight time.
