Presidents Cup assistant captains named

International team captain Ernie Els has named KJ Choi, Trevor Immelman and Mike Weir as his final three assistants for this year's Presidents Cup golf tournament.

Els had already named Australia's Geoff Ogilvy as one of his assistant captains for the event at Royal Melbourne from December 9-15.

Choi will return as an assistant for the second time after serving as vice- captain to Nick Price when the Presidents Cup was played in Choi's native South Korea in 2015.

Choi played on the International team in 2003, 2007 and 2011.

South Africa's Immelman will make his debut as a captain's assistant after playing in 2005 and 2007.

Weir will return as a captain's assistant after the Canadian, who has played on five International teams, occupied the same role in 2017.
