Captains named for EurAsia Cup

Miguel Angel Jimenez is to skipper Europe while Thongchai Jaidee will captain Asia in the first edition of the Ryder Cup-style EurAsia Cup next year.

The biennial tournament, co-sanctioned by the European and Asian tours, is to be held over three days in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, from March 27-29. Playing-captain Jimenez will have British pair Graeme McDowell and Jamie Donaldson, Frenchman Victor Dubuisson and fellow Spaniard Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano as his four automatic choices. Four more players from the world rankings and a captain’s pick will complete Europe’s 10-man team. The Asian ten will include the leading four available Asian players from the 2013 Asian Tour Order of Merit and three based on world rankings, while Thongchai will select the final trio.
