Darren Clarke admits he would love to be Europe's Ryder Cup captain.
The 46-year-old Northern Irishman was in contention to be named skipper for this year's contest at Gleneagles before ruling himself out of the running.
Clarke, who will be at the PGA Centenary Course as a television pundit, said: "I would love to be Ryder Cup captain. I've played in five and been involved two others and it would be a huge honour if I was to be asked at some stage."
The 2016 Ryder Cup will be held at Hazeltine in Minnesota and Clarke can imagine himself leading out the European team.
He added: "If they were to offer me the job I would certainly not be picky as to when it would be.
"I've always been quite popular with the American fans. They have always been very good to me over there."
