Paul McGinley reveals ultimate European Ryder Cup dream team

Paul McGinley takes us through his ultimate European Ryder Cup team. Who will be selected to take the 12 places?

Former Ryder Cup-winning captain Paul McGinley has played and worked alongside some of Europe's greatest ever golfers, but who would feature in his all-time Ryder Cup team?

The Irishman was given the tough task of selecting the 12 players - of any era - he would ideally want in his European dream team, with McGinley revealing his answers in a special feature programme on Sky Sports.

McGinley holed the winning putt for Europe at the Belfry in 2002 and featured in victorious European sides over the next two Ryder Cups, losing only two of his nine matches across the three tournaments.

The four-time European Tour winner acted as a vice-captain for Europe's triumphs in 2010 and 2012, before leading Europe to a 16.5-11.5 victory at Gleneagles two years later.

With so many great players available to select in his dream dozen, McGinley was left with some tough decisions and had to leave out some high-profile players.
