Age: 42

2018 PGA Tour highlights: 18 starts, one win (Tour Championship), seven top-10s

Ryder Cup experience: 13-17-3 record in seven appearances

Buzz: Woods capped his incredible comeback season with career win No. 80 last week, so he’s the big man on campus at Le Golf National. Woods was always going to be in Paris as a vice-captain, and he played his way onto the team with a ton of success in this comeback season. He also had a T-6 finish at the BMW and is hitting the ball better than he has all season. After a few shaky putting performances, Woods drained big make after big make at East Lake.
