    Davis Love III officially named USA team captain for the 2016 Ryder Cup.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Davis Love III, USA 2016 Ryder Cup Captain:
    "I am here today with the same goal I had in 2012 - but not as the same captain. The Ryder Cup Task Force has been an open, honest team-building experience. The collaborative effort of so many veterans of the Ryder Cup is a result of the passion and the commitment to build a team structure that will lay the ground work that will lay the groundwork for future teams."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Davis Love III, USA 2016 Ryder Cup Captain:
    "I was honoured to be asked to serve on the Task Force and believe the PGA knows and understands my love and passion for the Ryder Cup. I could not be more excited to captain the 2016 team."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Phil Mickleson, USA:
    "I'm excited about the next generation of players, Rickie (Fowler) and Jordan Spieth and Patrick Reed and guys that are going to be on the upcoming teams that will have input in who their captain; how it's captained, who the vice captains are and the entire process I think will be a very positive experience for all the players and very exciting opportunity over the next ten Ryder Cups to hopefully improve on the record that we have been limping home with."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Davis Love III, USA 2016 Ryder Cup Captain:
    "Darren (Clarke) and I will have a lot of laughs, we'll have lot of fun, I know that, and they will be well dressed. Darren is so well respected in the game, friends with so many players, a friend to all; he's always got a smile on his face. He'll be a great leader, a great captain, and what I'm so excited about, we get to spend a year and a half doing stuff like this with Darren Clarke. It will grow our friendship and we'll have a lot of fun doing it. He'll be a great leader, and I'm thrilled that that conversation back in 2010 at Wales is going to come through; that I'm going to get to captain with him."
