Love will soon make his final Ryder Cup picks after the automatic eight spots on Team USA are filled up following The Barclays this week.
Love: Tiger Woods is future Ryder Cup captain
United States Ryder Cup captain Davis Love III says vice-captain Tiger Woods is his tactician.
He explained the process involved when he decided to select Tom Lehman, Tiger Woods, Steve Stricker and Jim Furyk - who is still trying to make the team as a player - as his vice-captains.
Love was especially complimentary of Woods, saying he was his best "tactician".
"He'll be a future captain, so he's got to be a part of the decision-making process of this whole new Ryder Cup committee," Love said.
"Tiger is more interested in the strategy side of it - rounding out the team with picks, or making small groups, making pairings. He's our tactician more than anything. And he's really been helpful on how to prepare for a major championship.
"He's like me. He's excited about it, he doesn't sleep much, he puts a lot of thought into it. There's a reason why he's arguably one of the greatest players to ever play the game.
"He knows how to prepare, he knows how to think his way around a golf course, around a golf tournament. He's committed to being a part of it and he means it."
Woods has played in seven Ryder Cups during his career, amassing a disappointing 13-17-3 record in 33 matches.
Tuesday marked the one-year anniversary since he last played on the PGA Tour (2015 Wyndham Championship), but he remains focused on making a comeback and helping the Ryder Cup team finally beat Europe.
