    Former Europe captain Nick Faldo believes he is being ignored by successor Colin Montgomerie in the buildup to the Ryder Cup in October.

    Faldo's haul in winning 25 points in 11 Ryder Cups is a record. He was also Europe captain in defeat at Valhalla two years ago.

    However, during three days spent in Munich with Montgomerie at the BMW International Open this week, there has been no dialogue between the pair.

    Faldo said that his attempts to contact this year's captain have drawn a blank.

    "I didn't want just to make my views known to him through the media," said Faldo, who quit the German tournament on Friday after missing the cut.

    "So I wrote to Monty three weeks ago suggesting we meet up for a chat, but I have not had a reply. I don't think I need say any more than that. It says it all."
