Ryder Cup star Ian dreams of playing with son Luke in a Major

- BY SAM FROST

IAN POULTER says the “icing on the cake” of his career would be to play in a Major championship with his son, Luke.

The Ryder Cup legend turned 50 this month, dreaming of one day ticking off his last sporting item on his bucket list.

Luke, 22, is at the University of Florida and is No.14 in the World Amateur Golf Rankings. With blond locks and a natural flair, Poulter Jnr is a chip off the old block.

Ian’s world ranking has plummeted outside the top 3,500 since joining LIV in 2022, meaning he has to earn a place at the Majors the hard way.

The father-son duo attempted to qualify for last year’s Open at Portrush, both missing the mark by three shots but they aim to give it another go this summer for Birkdale.
