‘I will be there’: Donald Trump weighs on Keegan Bradley’s Ryder Cup Quandary

It seems that everyone that everyone can talk about at the Tour Championship 2025 is as Keegan Bradley next to Captain IT in the US Ryder Cup team. Even Bradley is open about his painful dilemma. Now a new figure weighs on the Quandary: President Donald Trump.

Trump went on social media on Saturday to give enthusiastic, although confusing, his opinion about whether Bradley should be a play captain for the American team.

Trump: Bradley should be ‘Sure in the Ryder Cup team as’ Captain’

Trump is an avid golfer and owner of countless golf clubs around the world. Two clubs he owns previously held Pro Golf Tournament before he owned. Trump Turnberry has been organizing different open championships and Trump Doral, a PGA Tour event for many years.

His Trump Bedminster course in New Jersey was initially linked to organize the PGA championship 2022, but the PGA of America voted to withdraw that honor after the attacks on the American Capitol on January 6, 2021.

This week the PGA Tour announced its return to Trump Doral for the Miami Championship 2026, a new characteristic event.

His involvement in the game does not end there. Trump appeared on the Presidents Cup 2017 during his first term and watched the Americans beat the international side.

But on Saturday morning another team event was in mind: the 2025 Ryder Cup in Bethpage Black.

In the midst of the controversy over Bradley, it may choose himself as one of the choices of his six captain, Trump has posted his opinion about the issue on the truth of the truth.

Trump wrote: “Keegan Bradley should definitely be in the American Ryder Cup team – as a leader !!! He is a great guy. It will be a great Ryder Cup. At the invitation of the PGA Tour I will be there on Friday !!! President Djt”

Although it is clear that Trump supports Bradley’s involvement in the team, it is unclear of his terms when he thinks Bradley should be a play captain. While he wrote that Bradley should be “sure” in the American team, he added “As Captain !!!”

In addition, Trump announced that he would attend Friday’s opening day of this year’s Ryder Cup game, which will certainly cause a commotion at Bethpage. The Ryder Cup is jointly operated by Ryder Cup Europe and the PGA of America, not The PGA Tour.

Keegan Bradley’s Ryder Cup Conundrum

More than a year ago, Bradley was tapped as the leader of the US Ryder Cup team. But since then another question did: would he also play in the team?

At the age of 39, Bradley is in the prime of his career and one of the best American players who live. This season he won the 2025 Travelers Championship and is in 13th place in the official World Golf Ranking.

However, Bradley was not automatically eligible for the American team. The only way he can play is by using one of the choices of his captain in himself.

The American captain has determined in detail how much he was struggling on Friday with the decision on the Tour Championship and called it the ‘biggest decision of my life’.

“You worry that people may say by my side, if you don’t win, that was a mistake. That was complacent. I am very aware of that. Whatever a decision, I will be determined by this decision. If we win, it doesn’t matter what decision I make,” said Bradley. “But every captain has to make really difficult decisions. This is just a really unique decision. I think it is only because of my age. If Tiger Woods or Phil Mickelson or Jim Fury were appointed as captain at my age, they should do this. So it’s just a lucky trek, I don’t know.”

Fortunately for Bradley, his game on the Tour Championship could make his decision a lot easier. On the way to the last round of Sunday, Bradley is in fourth place, only three shots behind the CO-leaders.
