Miguel Angel Jimenez is having a blast at the Ryder Cup opening ceremony

When I grow up I either want to be Miguel Angel Jimenez or Andrea Pirlo.

OH MIGUEL, DON’T ever change. Golf is played by such fundamentally uncool individuals that someone like cigar-toting, rioja-drinking Miguel Angel Jimenez stands out even more. Selfies are pretty damn awful, but when Ryder Cup vice-captain Miguel goes for one at the opening ceremony, it is utterly majestic.

And for those of you wondering what kind of vice-captain Jimenez might be, just take a look at this photo, which sums up his vice-captaining philosophy in one snap.

Miguel Angel Jimenez is in a rarefied air of coolness that previously was only occupied by Andrea Pirlo. Here’s a few more photos of Jimenez being Jimenez.
