Monty Will Not Be Rushed Into Naming The Poor Saps Who Will Be His Assistant Captains

Martin Dempster reports the shocking news.

"I do not feel there is any rush at all to name my assistants," said the Scot in his latest captain's blog on europeantour.com. "I have said publicly that I am hoping to select a younger generation of assistant captain and because of that, I am going to leave the decision for a few months yet as the range of players I have in mind will all be trying to qualify for the team first and foremost.

"Therefore, I will be making no decision on that, or naming any names, until at least after the conclusion of The Open Championship at St Andrews in July."
