Tranlate this title Brandel Chamblee gives his honest take on Tiger Woods as US Ryder Cup captain in spanish

After it was confirmed that Luke Donald will be the captain of the European team at the next edition of the Ryder Cup, speculation began about who could become the next captain of the American team. 

In golf circles, it is increasingly emphasized that Tiger Woods would be the right person for that challenge, but the question is how willing the 50-year-old is to take it on.

Brandel Chamblee was among the many analysts who shared their opinion, speaking on the Dan on Golf Show about the chances of Tiger Woods becoming the new captain of the US team. 

When asked if it is the right time for Tiger to become the new captain, Chamblee pointed out that Woods currently has other commitments. 

Chamblee believes that Justin Leonard would be the right figure for such a task, whom Chamblee regards highly. 

Tiger Woods, on the other hand, is expected to be focused on helping the PGA Tour thrive in the coming years.

“I think the next captain should be Justin Leonard,“ Chamblee said, as quoted by The Golfing Gazette.

“Tiger has got plenty of time to be the captain, and he should probably do it more than once.

I think he’s too busy with the governance of the PGA Tour.

I think he probably wants to play a little on the PGA Tour Champions, you know, he’s got bigger fish to fry right now than taking over the Ryder Cup.

And the right thing to do is to make Justin Leonard the captain. They missed the boat when they did it with Larry Nelson.»

Is Justin Leonard the right choice?

Looking at Justin Leonard, one can feel how impressed Chamblee is with his playing abilities, stating that Leonard has won the Players Championship, US Major, NCAA Major, and is also a dignified and prudent person. 

Brandel Chamblee expects Leonard to take over the captaincy role if Tiger Woods is not the next US captain. 

The question is how dominant Leonard would be in that role and whether he would really represent the right solution for the Americans. 

The American team has been going through a slight crisis in recent years, so at this moment it is necessary to find a person who possesses not only playing abilities but also leadership skills.

Justin Leonard seems like a perfect candidate, but it is best to wait, as the PGA of America will make the final decision.
