Azinger and Faldo recently got their first looks at the Club Car Precedent captain’s cars they will use at Valhalla. The four-passenger electric models (blue for Europe, red for the U.S.) feature the U.S. and European team logos on the front of the car and the front seat back and the Ryder Cup logo on the car’s side panels.
“The new car looks great and I’m sure it will be put to good use as everyone knows the importance for me being in the thick of the action when key matches come to a close,” Faldo says.
