Keegan Bradley Named US Ryder Cup Captain for 2025

In an exciting announcement from the PGA of America, Keegan Bradley has been chosen to lead the US Ryder Cup team in 2025 at Bethpage Black in New York. The decision comes after months of discussions with Tiger Woods, who was initially considered for the role.

Bradley, who has only played on two Ryder Cup teams before, expressed his gratitude and excitement for the opportunity. “I am incredibly honored to accept this opportunity to captain the United States team at the 2025 Ryder Cup,” said Bradley in a statement. “My passion and appreciation for golf’s greatest team event have never been stronger.”

The 38-year-old golfer is already in New York undergoing media training and is set to hold a news conference to introduce himself as the new US captain on Tuesday. Bradley, a New England native, played college golf at St John’s in New York, adding a local connection to the prestigious event.

Bradley’s experience in the Ryder Cup includes appearances in 2012 and 2014, with a 4-3-0 record overall. Despite being left off the team in 2023, Bradley has continued to display his dedication to the event. “I think about the Ryder Cup every second I’m awake, basically,” he said.

With an impressive career that includes winning the 2011 PGA Championship and five other PGA Tour victories, Bradley’s leadership and experience will be crucial for the US team in 2025. Fans can expect an exciting Ryder Cup under Bradley’s guidance as he aims to bring the Cup back to American soil.
