Keegan Bradley, the Ryder Cup captain, clinched the Travelers Championship with a dramatic birdie on the 18th hole on June 22, finishing 15-under par and outpacing Tommy Fleetwood by a single stroke. This marked his second Travelers win in three years and boosted him to a career-high world ranking of No. 7
Although balancing roles as both a competitive PGA Tour player and the strategic leader of the US Ryder Cup team has been a challenge, Bradley has been juggling standings, team selections, logistics, media duties, and competition — and delivering strong performances on both fronts.
Let’s take a look at the American professional golfer who has shot to the limelight.
Who is Keegan Bradley?
Born in Woodstock, Vermont, Keegan Hansen Bradley is a standout American professional golfer. After honing his skills at St. John’s University, he turned pro in 2008 and burst onto the scene in 2011, earning PGA Tour Rookie of the Year honors and clinching a major title at the PGA Championship – his first major appearance. That win made him one of only six golfers in history to triumph in their major debut.
Over the years, he's secured seven PGA Tour victories, bolstering his reputation as a fierce competitor.
Bradley’s Ryder Cup resume is equally notable. He played pivotal roles in the 2012 and 2014 US teams, compiling a commendable 4–3–0 record. Known for leaving his luggage unpacked for over a decade – a symbolic gesture tied to his unfinished Ryder Cup ambitions – he exemplifies his unwavering commitment to the event.
In a surprise move announced on July 8, 2024, Bradley was named captain of the US Ryder Cup team for the 2025 matches at Bethpage Black, after Tiger Woods declined. Although Bradley openly admitted the role “came out of the blue,” he embraced the challenge despite lacking previous vice-captain experience. Unlike most captains, Bradley continues to compete on the PGA Tour while preparing for captaincy.
Net worth:
As of 2025, Keegan Bradley’s net worth is estimated at around $25 million, thanks to a career that has balanced elite performance with steady off-course earnings. His tournament winnings exceed $49 million, highlighted by standout performances like the 2023 Travelers Championship and strong showings in major events. Meanwhile, Spotrac reports official PGA earnings alone topping $51 million through mid‑2025, making a strong case for his consistency at the highest level.
Off-course earnings and brand deals
Bradley’s impressive net worth isn’t built on prize money alone. He’s partnered with major brands such as Nike (Jordan Brand), Srixon, Titleist, TravisMathew, Tommy Hilfiger, Flag & Anthem, Rolex, and Service Credit Union, among others. These endorsement deals likely inject several million dollars annually into his financial portfolio.
Smart investments and real estate savvy
Diversification has helped Bradley solidify his wealth. In 2012, he bought a $2 million mansion in Florida and sold it in 2015 for a profit, demonstrating sharp real estate instincts. Additionally, he acquired a residence in Newburyport, Massachusetts, in 2023, expanding his assets beyond the green.
Annual earnings and lifestyle
In 2024 alone, Bradley earned approximately $6.36 million from official PGA events, plus an additional $660K from the Tour Championship and $225K from other events. With career-long annual averages around $5 million and major bonuses from victories, his income remains robust.
