Tiger Woods role at Ryder Cup unclear after Keegan Bradley admission.
Tiger Woods’ involvement in the 2025 Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black is still to be decided, but Team USA captain Keegan Bradley has been in discussions with the 15-time major champion
Keegan Bradley, the captain of Team USA, has been in talks with Tiger Woods about a potential role for the 15-time major champion in the 2025 Ryder Cup. Bradley is leading the American side in the 2025 edition of the biennial tournament as they aim to reclaim the title they lost on European soil in Italy last fall.
With this goal in mind, Team USA is looking to assemble the strongest team possible to secure the crown – and Woods might have a part to play.
Bradley didn’t dismiss the possibility of Woods’ involvement at Bethpage Black, although he seemed to downplay the hype surrounding it. At this stage, it is clear Bradley hopes Woods will have some role although what that will be is currently unclear.

“I spoke to Tiger a bunch when the announcement happened,” Bradley shared. “He was really really helpful, had a lot of great advice. Again, the stress of playing in the President’s Cup and then the playoffs and everything that came with that, I’ve sort of put everything on pause for a second.
“I’ll be addressing that in the coming weeks and months, but I’ve had great conversations with Tiger. He’s a mentor for all of us and he’s got a lot of great suggestions on things we can do as a team.”
Woods has participated in eight Ryder Cups over more than 20 years, securing the iconic trophy twice. His most disappointing Ryder Cup performance was his latest one – at Le Golf National in Paris in 2018.
He didn’t win a single match that week as the Americans were once again defeated by the Europeans. However, Team USA will have the upper hand in 2025; the last time Europe won on American soil was at Medinah Country Club in 2012.
