Jim Furyk is returning as the captain for the United States’Ryder Cupteam next year, The Associated Press reported Friday.
It’s a blast from the past, although not necessarily a positive past – Furyk captained the2018 teamthat was shellacked in France, with his captain’s picks combining to go 2-10.
Keegan Bradley captained last year’s team at Bethpage Black, which had an embarrassing first two days but gave a valiant effort at an unprecedented comeback in Sunday singles.They fell just short, 15-13, after entering the day trailing by seven points.

Members of that USA team backed Bradley after their loss, but it appears to be for naught.
Furyk led the Americans to victory as Presidents Cup captain in 2024, and he was said to be a reliable voice as an assistant to Bradley at Bethpage.
Furyk’s 2018 team had issues behind the scenes, too, as Patrick Reed was not happy with being benched twice.He also blamed Jordan Spieth for the two not playing together, which Reed felt could have been successful.
Furyk would be the fourth U.S.captain to get a second chance dating to 1979, considered the modern era of the Ryder Cup, when continentalEuropebecame part of it, along with Davis Love III (2012 and 2016), Tom Watson (1993 and 2014) and Jack Nicklaus (1983 and 1987).
