VIRGINIA WATER, England — Luke Donald decided to return as Ryder Cup captain for Europe with a shot at making history as the only captain to win three straight times.

Not since Bernard Gallacher from 1991-1995 has someone been captain at three straight Ryder Cups. Donald led Team Europe to victory outside Rome in 2023, and then at Bethpage Black in New York last September.
