Victorian Geoff Ogilvy, a three-time member of the International Team, has been named as an assistant captain for 2024 Presidents Cup. 

South African Nick Price, the International Team Captain, has chosen Ogilvy to be one of three assistants, alongside Tony Johnstone and Ernie Els, for the event to be played at the Royal Montreal Golf Club in Canada, from September 24-29.  

Ogilvy, the US Open champion in 2006 and an eight-time winner on the PGA TOUR, played in three consecutive International teams (2007, 2009, 2011). He will be acting as an International team assistant captain for the first time. 

“I didn’t make the last two Presidents Cups when Nick was captain, but I talked to him a lot during the whole time and I was pretty impressed with how he managed it,” Ogilvy told the PGA TOUR.

“I was very excited when he called me.  It’s been my favorite three weeks of golf ever by a long stretch, the three Presidents Cups I’ve played. It’s not even close for second.  It’s an incredible time and this one, especially, might be the coolest venue for one of these top team events ever.”

Steve Stricker will take on the duties as US Team Captain, with Fred Couples, Davis Love III and Tiger Woods his captain’s assistants.
