Keegan Bradley will get a prep job in Canada. Bradley, recently named captain of the US Ryder Cup, has been named assistant captain of this year’s Presidents Cup.

Bradley joins Stewart Cink, Justin Leonard and Kevin Kisner as assistants under captain Jim Furyk.

“Keegan is a great competitor with a bulldog mentality and we look forward to having his voice in the team room,” Furyk said in his release Wednesday. “He has a great passion for tournament play and I know he will be an asset to our players in 2024, and 2025, as he leads them to Bethpage Black in the 2025 Ryder Cup.”

In addition to his two Ryder Cups (2012, 2014), Bradley also played in the 2013 Presidents Cup at Muirfield Village in Dublin, Ohio. He ended the week with a record 2-2-1 victory over the Americans.

“I was happy to get the call from Jim and I look forward to doing everything I can to help our team,” Bradley said in a statement. “With the Ryder Cup on the horizon next year, this will be great for me to understand the other side of the club room and how this relationship and coaching helps our guys perform at their best.”

The 2024 Presidents Cup runs from September 26-29 at the Royal Montreal Golf Club in Montreal, Canada. The US is 12-1-1 all-time in the event and has won the last nine meetings.

Bradley was named US Ryder Cup captain three weeks ago. So far he has added Webb Simpson as vice-captain, with others to be named later.
