Keegan Bradley named U.S. assistant captain for 2024 Presidents Cup

U.S. Presidents Cup Captain Jim Furyk made the obvious official, announcing Keegan Bradley as his fourth captain’s assistant for the 2024 Presidents Cup.

Bradley, recently named the 2025 United States Ryder Cup Captain, joins Stewart Cink, Justin Leonard and Kevin Kisner as fellow assistants when the Presidents Cup returns to The Royal Montreal Golf Club in Montreal, Canada, Sept. 24-29.

Speaking on SiriusXM PGA Tour Radio on Friday, Furyk eluded that this announcement was imminent. “Maybe I’ve already had conversations with Keegan,” he said with a laugh. “I definitely…maybe want to offer that up to him.”

“Keegan is a tremendous competitor with a bulldog mentality and we are looking forward to having his voice in the team room in Montreal,” said Furyk in a statement on Wednesday. “He has a strong passion for match play competition and I know he will be an asset to our players in 2024, as well as 2025, as he leads them into Bethpage Black for the 2025 Ryder Cup.”

Bradley, 38, represented the U.S. team in the 2013 Presidents Cup at Murifield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio, compiling a 2-2-1 record. The Vermont native also played for the United States in the 2012 and 2014 Ryder Cups, where he amassed a combined 4-3-0 record.

Bradley owns six career wins on the PGA Tour, with his most recent victory coming at the 2023 Travelers Championship. He won his first major championship at the 2011 PGA Championship, where he defeated Jason Dufner in a playoff at Atlanta Athletic Club.

Ever since the U.S. lost the 2014 Ryder Cup in Scotland and reacted by creating a task force to try to reverse America’s losing record, the next Ryder Cup captain has served a stint as an assistant captain for the U.S. Presidents Cup.

“I was ecstatic to get the call from Jim and looking forward to doing all I can to help our team in Montreal,” said Bradley. “With the Ryder Cup on the horizon next year, this will be a great experience for me to understand the other side of the team room and how that camaraderie and coaching helps our guys play their best.”
