French Fans Declare Levet Their Choice for 2018 Captaincy; Monty Mum On Candidacy...So Far

Bernie McGuire on Thomas Levet winning the French Open at the 2018 Ryder Cup venue, but alas, no comments yet from Monty on whether he is not or not yet a candidate for the '18 Ryder Cup job.

As well, Levet singled out his mother who was unable, due to illness, to attend a French Open for over 20-years.

“Winning the French Open is like winning a Major for me,” he said.

“But I just tried to play my game and hang on at ever hole and tried to put a bit of pressure on everyone else.

“It was just amazing out there playing in front of some many French fans, and imagine what the atmosphere is going to be like in seven years time when we are going to have 6,000 more people on the golf course.

“But it was just crazy out there and the noise the people made was terrific.

“They were singing ‘Allez, allez, allez and ‘captain, ‘captain’ at me thinking about the Ryder Cup already.
