U.S. Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley named veteran Brandt Snedeker as one of his vice captains for the 45th installment of the event next year in Bethpage, N.Y.

Snedeker, 43, becomes the second vice captain named; Webb Simpson was the first. Snedeker owns a 4-2-0 career record in two Ryder Cup appearances (2012, 2016).

"As I've started preparing for the 2025 Ryder Cup, I quickly realized that Brandt was someone I wanted by my side," said Bradley. "Having competed in two Ryder Cups, including a stellar individual performance in 2016, Brandt's experience and insight will surely be beneficial to our team in the months ahead."

Snedeker has nine victories on the PGA Tour in 434 career starts.

"The Ryder Cup is unlike anything in our sport and I hope to bring the passion and pride to help Keegan deliver his vision of what a Ryder Cup in New York should look like," Snedeker said.

Bradley will name additional vice captains in the future.
