The 48-year-old Irishman's custom-made golf clubs, travel
documents and passport were also taken ahead of his appearance
in this week's AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am.
"I was disappointed," McGinley told the newspaper. "All my stuff
was taken.
"I had only been in the country an hour and a half. It can
happen in any country, or city, in the world. I thought it was
safe and it didn't cross my mind."
McGinley stood down as captain after Europe beat the United
States in the Ryder Cup in Scotland in September and is on a
five-man panel that is due to announce his successor in the next
few weeks.
The $6.8 million Pebble Beach tournament starts on Thursday.
