[Asia Economy Reporter No Woo-rae] ○…‘Tank’ Choi Kyung-ju (52, SK Telecom, photo) has been selected as the vice-captain for the 2022 Presidents Cup.

Trevor Immelman, captain of the International Team (South Africa), announced on the 20th (Korean time) that "Choi Kyung-ju, Mike Weir (Canada), Geoff Ogilvy (Australia), and Camilo Villegas (Colombia) have been appointed as vice-captains." The Presidents Cup is a biennial intercontinental golf competition between the International Team, excluding Europe, and the United States. Established in 1994, it will be held for the first time in three years on September 20 at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina, USA, due to COVID-19.

Choi Kyung-ju will serve as vice-captain for the third time, following 2015 and 2019. As a player, he recorded 6 wins and 8 losses in 2003, 2007, and 2011. Choi, who said it is an "honor to be part of the International Team," described Immelman as "a captain with passion and dedication," adding, "I will do my best to help the team win." The United States team is led by captain David Love III, with Jack Johnson and Fred Couples as vice-captains. There is a possibility that the ‘returning golf emperor’ Tiger Woods will join as a vice-captain.
