US Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley on Wednesday named Jim Furyk as one of his vice-captains ahead of the match against Europe in September at Bethpage Black.
Furyk joins Webb Simpson, Brandt Snedeker and Kevin Kisner, who were previously named by Bradley as vice-captains. Additional vice-captains will be announced later.
"Having Jim as a member of our team is a great advantage for us to move forward," Bradley said. "I had the privilege of playing for him in last year's Presidents Cup and his exceptional leadership, unwavering demeanor and experience made a huge impression on all of us. He knows what it takes to be successful in Ryder Cups and I can't wait to work alongside him as we prepare for Bethpage Black," the captain said.
Furyk, Ryder
The 45th edition of the Ryder Cup is scheduled for September 26-28 at Bethpage Black in Farmingdale, New York. The Europeans are the defending champions following a 16.5-11.5 victory in Rome in 2023.
Furyk returns to the U.S. coaching staff for the fourth time, having served as vice-captain after previously serving in that role during victories in 2016 at Hazeltine National Golf Club and in 2021 at Whistling Straits. Additionally, Furyk captained the U.S. team at the 2018 Ryder Cup at Le Golf National in Guyancourt, France.
Furyk, 54, represented the United States in nine consecutive Ryder Cups, from 1997 to 2014. He is the second-most played American player, while his 34 career matches are tied for third in the history of the North American giant.
"I am truly honored to be chosen as one of Keegan's vice-captains for the 2025 Ryder Cup," Furyk said. "There is nothing in our sport like the experience of representing the United States at the Ryder Cup. I am excited to work with Keegan, who brings incredible passion and leadership, as well as Webb, Brandt and Kevin to help our team challenge for the Cup this September."
Furyk has seventeen titles on the PGA Tour, including the 2003 US Open. The PGA Tour Player of the Year in 2010, he also has three titles on the Champions Tour.
