Who are Sky Sports’ pundits for the Ryder Cup?

Postponed from a year ago, the Ryder Cup is taking place on American shores this time around.

The bi-annual competition sees a team from the USA battle a team from Europe over three days of tense golf.

Sky Sports have the rights to show the Ryder Cup live here in the UK, with coverage throughout the tournament from 11am BST daily.

Here are the main players in the studio and out on the course over the next few days:

Andrew Coltart

A former winner on the European Tour, ex-golfer Andrew has been a familiar voice to Sky Sports viewers for a decade.

He joined the station in 2011, with his highest finish in a Major T18th in the 1999 Open Championship.

Another former pro, American icon Butch is best known for teaching some of the all-time greats.

He was coach to Tiger Woods from 1993 to 2004, as well as Phil Mickelson, Ernie Else, Stewart Cink and David Love III.
