Lee Westwood removed himself from consideration for the 2020 European Ryder Cup captaincy, but that wont be the case when the matches head to Italy two years later.Id love to have it in Italy. Ill not lie to you, he told reporters Tuesday at the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship. That would be ideal for me to be captain. I proved at the end of last year that I can still win tournaments, and I feel like I can still qualify for a Ryder Cup team. So it would be daft to go for the next one, because Id like to play in it.Indeed, Westwood, who turns 46 in April, snapped a winless drought with his victory last November at the Nedbank Challenge. If he doesnt qualify on his own or receive a captains pick from Padraig Harrington, then he said hed like to help out in some way and gain a bit more experience as a vice captain at Whistling Straits.
