Tranlate this title Edoardo Molinari is Ryder Cup vice-captain in spanish

Englishman Luke Donald, captain of Team Europe, has named Edoardo Molinari vice-captain for the match against Team USA, scheduled for September 17-19, 2027, at the Adare Manor Golf Club in Limerick, Ireland. This is the third consecutive time the Englishman has chosen the 45-year-old from Turin at his side—following his two previous successes in Rome in 2023 and Farmingdale, USA, in 2025. In addition to offering his extensive experience, Donald has provided significant statistical support through his analysis model.

The Italian said: «I’m delighted Donald called me again. Being involved in the Ryder Cup, in any role, is fantastic. Luke is an incredible captain, highly regarded by the players, and he leads by example. He puts in a lot of effort, thinks deeply about every detail, makes everyone feel at ease, is always willing to try new things, new ideas, and above all, is extremely motivated to win.»

Edoardo Molinari, statements

«Edoardo,» said Donald, «has been a fundamental role model for me. He’s made a difference for our team. He’s invaluable in statistical analysis, helping me with the qualifying system, and navigating the ever-changing world of golf. He’s a very reliable person and always offers excellent advice: it’s an honor to have him by my side again.»

Molinari played in the Ryder Cup as a player in 2010 in Wales (a European victory, 14.5 to 13.5), alongside his brother Francesco, who was also vice-captain in the previous two matches. This was the first time two brothers have been on the team since Bernard and Geoffrey Hunt, who played for Great Britain and Ireland in 1963. In his career, the Italian has won three titles on the DP World Tour, one on the Japan Tour, five on the Hotel Planner Tour, and won the World Cup with Francesco in 2009 in China. As an amateur, he won the 2005 US Amateur Championship, a major title in his category.
