Sergio Garcia hopes to make it into Ryder Cup team through Captain Olazabal’s pick
Spaniard Sergio Garcia is all charged up to make a blistering start of the season on the European Tour but his emphasis, for the moment, lies with the Ryder Cup, scheduled in October this year.
Garcia brought a successful end to his two-year long winless streak last year when he romped to consecutive victories on his home turf.
Garcia won the Castello Masters and the Andalucía Masters in October to finally break into the top-50 on the Official World Golf Rankings (OWGR).
He had fallen out of the top-75 before and started to show signs of a comeback with his impressive performances in the middle of the year.
Struggling with his winless spree, Garcia failed to make it into the Ryder Cup in 2010, where the grizzled European Tour posted a historic win against the US at the scenic Celtic Manor.
Grinning Garcia was talking to the press ahead of the Northern Trust Open at the picturesque Riviera Country Club.
Garcia said, "You all know how much I love the Ryder Cup and how important it is to me. I would love to make that team and help my team mates retain the Cup. I'm as hungry as I was before, as hungry as I was trying in 2010 and as hungry as I was in any of the other ones that I managed to qualify for".
Having won 22 professional victories in his stellar career, Garcia has won 10 European Tour events and has a strong case to be part of the team.
Also carefully considering his options, Garcia would be leaning on the Captain’s pick in the final days.
Jose Maria Olazabal has now succeeded Colin Montgomerie as the new Captain and will provide an edge to the ambitious Garcia.
Garcia added, "I think Jose is going to be an amazing captain. I've had him as a vice-captain, and he was great so I'm really looking forward to seeing him as a captain".
Ryder Cup 2012 will be staged at Medinah County in Chicago this year and will provide excellent golf over the weekend. The US team will be hoping to take its revenge for the loss at Celtic Manor in 2010.
