European captain Nick Faldo named his two assistants for the Ryder Cup 2008 as Paul McGinley and Jose Maria Olazabal. The proviso is that neither of them make the team… So, while both will be honored by the offer, it’s a bit of a poisoned chalice as both of them have stated that they wish to defend the title against the USA in Valhalla. Faldo can name alternative assistants should either of them qualify for the team.
