Keegan Bradley Gives 2025 an 'F' After U.S. Ryder Cup Defeat

The U.S. captain says a career-level year felt erased by Europe’s 15–13 win at Bethpage Black.

Overview

  • Speaking Tuesday at the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas, Bradley said the season grade reflects the United States losing under his leadership.
  • He described the aftermath as "the darkest time" of his life and said he has only recently started to feel like himself again.
  • Individually, he won the Travelers Championship, posted six top-10 finishes and climbed as high as No. 7 in the world rankings.
  • Bradley played well enough to consider a rare playing-captain role but ultimately chose to remain solely as captain.
  • He said he would accept another chance to lead but noted the decision is not his, and Tiger Woods said no one has asked him about 2027 as Bradley believes Woods would get the job if he wanted it.
