Last minute invitee following the withdrawal of Nicolai Højgaard, who was ill, Julien Guerrier joined Francesco Molinari’s Continental European team to compete in the Team Cup from January 10 to 12 in Abu Dhabi, our colleagues at Canal +.

Neither his name nor his face will appear in the official photos of this 2025 edition of the Team Cupgeneral rehearsal of the Ryder Cup on the European side, however Julien Guerrier intends to make a name for himself this week.

The Rochelais has in fact hastily joined the continental team of Francesco Molinari in replacement of Nicolai Højgaardthe Dane has been suffering for several days according to information from Canal +.

The 39-year-old French player therefore adds a little more to the French contingent which now has four members with the presence of Romain Langasque, Matthieu Pavon andAntoine Rozner.

Winner of the Andalucia Masters last October, Julien Guerrier, 8th in the European Ryder Cup rankings, acted as “first luxury reserve” for the Italian captain.

Without much golf preparation, but after a short trip (the Frenchman lives in the Emirates), the 118th player in the world joined his team this Thursday morning for a short day of training before the start of the golf games this Friday against the team from the British Isles and Ireland led by Justin Rose.
