Two years ago, Tiger Woods served as a Vice Captain for the United States Ryder Cup team, but he did not participate on the links at Hazeltine National Golf Club because of a back injury.
This time around, the buzz around Woods has returned following his first victory on the PGA Tour in five years, with the United States sitting as -135 favorites (bet $135 to win $100) on the 2018 Ryder Cup odds at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.
Woods is coming off a convincing win at the Tour Championship in Atlanta last weekend, topping Billy Horschel by two strokes and Dustin Johnson by three.
