It marks the third appearance as an assistant captain for Weir, who joins Korea’s K.J. Choi, Australia’s Geoff Ogilvy and Colombia’s Camilo Villegas on Immelman’s team. The 51-year-old Weird also served as assistant to Nick Price at the 2017 Presidents Cup and to Ernie Els in 2019. The Canadian, an eight-time PGA Tour winner, competed in five Presidents Cups (2000, 2003, 2005, 2007, 2009) and was teammates with Immelman in 2005 and 2007. His all-time record at the matches is 13-9-2, and he’s one of five International Team members with 10 or more match wins in competition. “When I think of highlights in my career that really stand out to me, the Presidents Cup always makes the top of the list,” Weir, the 2003 Masters champ, said in a statement. “The comradery that continues to grow within this team is irreplaceable. We can all sense the momentum that is building.” In 2007, the matches were staged in Canada for the first time, with Weir going 3-1-1, highlighted by a 1-up victory over Tiger Woods in singles. He currently competes on the Champions tour, where he notched his first victory at the 2021 Insperity Invitational last May.
