Monty Will NOT Decline '14 Captaincy If Asked!
/"Whether I'll be captain or not isn't my decision," he said about 2014. "I'll not be promoting myself in that way."
When pressed, he said: "If they ask me, yes. But no-one's asked me and we have fantastic candidates in Darren Clarke, Thomas Bjorn and Paul McGinlay."
Montgomerie, the eight-time winner of the European Order of Merit and a Ryder Cup winner as a player, suffered a slump in his own personal form in the lead-up to the 2010 match.
That wasn't much different than what he'd said before. This was.
And, while pointing out that "it is not just myself" who would like to be captain, Montgomerie has now expressed his willingness to play his part in any capacity.
