United States captain Keegan Bradley named Kevin Kisner as one of his vice captains for the 45th Ryder Cup on Wednesday.

The competition will be played from Sept. 26-28 at Bethpage Black in Farmingdale, N.Y.

Kisner, 40, joins Webb Simpson and Brandt Snedeker, who were previously appointed as vice captains. Additional vice captains will be announced at a later date.

“Kevin is a great addition to our leadership group and will be a trusted voice throughout the coming months and this year’s Ryder Cup,” Bradley said. “His extensive match-play success and strong relationships make him a perfect fit. I look forward to working with him closely as we get ready for Bethpage Black.”

This marks Kisner’s first Ryder Cup as a vice captain or player. He was a captain’s assistant for the 2024 Presidents Cup and represented the U.S. in the 2017 and 2022 Presidents Cups, compiling a 2-2-3 career record.

“I am incredibly appreciative of Keegan for this opportunity to help guide the U.S. team at the 2025 Ryder Cup,” Kisner said. “I love match play, and the Ryder Cup is one of the greatest events in sports. I cannot wait to be a part of it and look forward to doing everything I can to support Keegan, Webb, Brandt and our talented team.”

Kisner is a four-time winner on the PGA Tour, most recently at the Wyndham Championship in 2021. He is known for strong match play, having won the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play tournament in 2019 and finishing second in that event in 2018 and 2022.
