Tuesday was a bittersweet day for Trevor Immelman.
As a past Masters champion he normally would have been preparing for this week’s tournament, which has now been relocated to November, with an eye toward the traditional Tuesday night Champion’s Dinner.
Instead, he was making a remote media tour following the PGA Tour’s announcement that he’ll captain next year’s International Presidents Cup team. It’s an honor that the South African wasn’t prepared for and a happy distraction, but the postponed Masters was still on his mind.
“There are so many amazing traditions,” Immelman said during a conference call with reporters.
