Ryder Cup Captain Keegan Bradley Wins Travelers Championship Connecticut

Keegan Bradley won the 2025 Travelers Championship in a dramatic finish, birdying the 18th hole to edge out Tommy Fleetwood, who bogeyed the final hole and missed key opportunities late in the round. Bradley rallied from three shots behind with four holes to play and finished at 15-under, while Fleetwood ended at 14-under, continuing his streak of runner-up finishes without a PGA Tour win. This victory strengthens Bradley's case to be a playing captain at the Ryder Cup this September at Bethpage Black, as he moved up to ninth in the standings and has stated he would only participate as a player if he qualifies automatically. Other top contenders like Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy tied for sixth, while Russell Henley finished one shot behind Fleetwood after a self-imposed penalty. The win awarded Bradley $3.6 million and marked his first signature event title, adding to his previous BMW Championship success. Meanwhile, American Akshay Bhatia had a disappointing finish at the tournament, tying for 54th place.
