Keegan Bradley Leads Team USA as 2025 Ryder Cup Captain

Keegan Bradley, appointed as captain of Team USA for the 2025 Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black, is focused on leading the team to redemption after their 2023 defeat. Balancing his ongoing PGA Tour career with his captaincy, Bradley has emphasized the importance of major tournaments in determining his Ryder Cup selections, noting the pressure and resilience players demonstrate in such events. He recently hosted a Team USA dinner that included players from the LIV Golf Tour, specifically Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka, signaling an inclusive approach despite some LIV players being excluded. Bradley's strong ties to the Northeast and his local popularity add to his commitment to the role, which he accepted following Tiger Woods' decision to step down. As captain, he holds six wild cards for team selection and continues to dream of participating as a player while prioritizing his leadership responsibilities. His candid remarks highlight the competitive atmosphere as players vie for spots on the team ahead of the Ryder Cup, which returns to U.S. soil in 2025.
