Jim Furyk, who captained the U.S. to a Presidents Cup win in 2024, and Keegan Bradley, who also contributed to that victory, were added to team skipper Brandt Snedeker's staff as assistant captains for this fall's tournament.

The Americans will look to make it 11 straight Presidents Cup victories against the International team Sept. 24-27 at Medinah Country Club in Illinois. The U.S. has only lost once at the Presidents Cup (1998), which began in 1994.

'Both guys have incredible experience as leaders representing the United States and they've each earned the respect of players across generations,' Snedeker said.

Furyk, 56, who led the Americans to victory at Royal Montreal Golf Club two years ago, will be the Ryder Cup captain for next year's event at Adare Manor in County Limerick, Ireland.

Bradley, 39, served as Ryder Cup captain in 2025, when the U.S. lost to Europe.

Snedeker, 45, who notched his first PGA Tour win in nearly eight years earlier this month at the Myrtle Beach Classic, will eventually add two more captains to his staff.
