Poulter top-scored for Europe with four points at last month's Ryder Cup

Ryder Cup stars Ian Poulter, Graeme McDowell and Ben Curtis will all play in next month's World Cup in China.

Poulter will team up with Ross Fisher for England, McDowell will join Paul McGinley for Ireland, while Curtis will partner Brandt Snedeker for the US.

Bradley Dredge and Richard Johnson represent Wales, while Scotland will defend their title with Colin Montgomerie and Alastair Forsyth.

Montgomerie and Marc Warren beat US duo Boo Weekley and Heath Slocum last year.

The format is 72 holes of strokeplay, alternating with rounds of fourball better-ball and alternate-shot foursomes.

The event, at Mission Hills Golf Club in Shenzhen, is set to start on 27 November.
