It’s the Ryder Cup year. As Team Europe and Team USA get ready to battle it out this September at the Bethpage Course in New York, veteran golfer Sergio Garcia is already looking ahead to the 2027 edition. The Spaniard believes he could be the team captain in that edition.
The 2017 Masters Champion is regarded as one of the greatest players when it comes to Ryder Cup. He currently holds the record for the most points in Ryder Cup for Team Europe with 28.5 points in 10 appearances.
Garcia did not take part in the 2023 edition at the Marco Simone course in Italy. He along with several other European golfers was banned from the event following his switch to LIV Golf. Despite his absence, Team Europe came out as comfortable winners.
The 45-year-old previously revealed his desire to play in 2-3 Ryder Cup events more. Whether he gets selected for the 2025 edition is currently unclear, he has envisioned captaining his team at the 2027 edition in Adare Manor in Ireland.
I would love to be playing still. Obviously there have been some talks or there were some talks about maybe the possibility of me being the captain there. But obviously my focus as of now is on playing and hopefully making a few more Ryder Cups if my game is good enough.

Following the 2023 edition, the name of Sergio Garcia was reported as the next in line to lead the team. There had been rumors of him going up against Tiger Woods as captains at the 2025 event in New York.
However, Team Europe decided to stay with Luke Donald as the captain. The Englishman will now be aiming for back-to-back triumphs when he leads his team out against Keegan Bradley‘s side.
Social media reacts to Sergio Garcia hoping to becoming Team Europe captain at Ryder Cup
The Ryder Cup has been one of the talking points in golf recently. The decision by the PGA of America approving payments for Team USA players caused a huge stir. Fans are seemingly once again not happy with a Ryder Cup topic as Sergio Garcia spoke on becoming Team Europe captain.
Garcia’s decision to join LIV Golf had sparked wild reactions. Since then, he has several times defended his league and his move which has upset a lot of fans.
On X, the golf fans rejected the idea of seeing him as Team Europe’s captain one day. While one fan suggested the name of Justin Rose instead, another blasted him. The fan wrote, “He’s a manchild” while slamming the veteran golfer.
Check out that and other reactions from X below:
This is fucking horseshit. The crop of players leading out the Europeans in 2027 are the very crop Sergio berated and had a hissy fit telling them they were all fucked,when he had a meltdown in the locker room in wentworth before he WD and went of to LIV. He’s a petulant manchild

Absolutely zero talk in the last 2 years. His baby antics at the BMW alone are enough to say "no thank you"

Justin Rose will be next captain. Nobody wants Sergio.

As a Ryder Cup legend in his day, I can honestly say I hope not!
— Rossco 🔴⚪️💙 (@Rossco76) February 6, 2025
Absolutely not. @JustinRose99 will lead us in 2027.

There are some discussions about Count Binface becoming PM. Also unlikely. Though in the case of Binface, it would be welcomed. In Sergio's, most definitely not welcomed

At the moment Garcia is participating in LIV Golf’s 2025 season opener at Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Last year, he finished 3rd in the player standings just behind Joaquin Niemann and countrymen Jon Rahm. He won once and had three runners-up finish in the last campaign, which is something he would be hoping to repeat this year.
