United States captain Keegan Bradley can concentrate entirely on the Ryder Cup now that the Tour Championship is finished.

Bradley has been in a difficult position on the PGA Tour this season, balancing his individual career with team captaincy duties.

He still needs to decide whether he will be a player, captain, or playing captain at Bethpage Black, and which six players will be selected for the team.

Before he finalizes those decisions on Wednesday, the American has revealed the next steps for the US Ryder Cup leadership team.

Keegan Bradley to hold Ryder Cup talks after Tour Championship

Bradley revealed in his press conference after the Tour Championship that he was about to discuss the pending Ryder Cup decisions with his vice-captains.

“I’ve gone through a lot of stuff this year, and I didn’t know how I was going to handle it,” Bradley explained. “Proud of the way I did. This is a whole ‘nother animal. I have no clue. This is going to be really difficult.

“When I get done here, we’re going to talk to my vice captains. We sort of put everything on hold for the last couple of days.

“I think they were trying to leave me alone. But we’ll get in touch with them and get our final decisions together. Saw a lot of Americans play great today, which makes me happy.”

Bradley was then asked how he would communicate with his vice-captains after the tournament finished at East Lake.

“I think we’re going to do a little bit of everything,” he added. “I’m sure they’ve been talking behind my back as I’m out there.

“I know they have a separate chat without me. I’m sure they have some of their opinions that they want to tell me what they think.

“Again, we didn’t talk at all last night. We talked, but not about this. I think they were trying to leave me alone, like I said. Hopefully, I’ll get done here, pack up, and we’ll start chatting.”

Keegan Bradley still does not know what decisions he will make

Perhaps he would not tell the media anyway, but Bradley stated that the decisions are still to be made ahead of the Ryder Cup announcement on Wednesday.

Lots of Americans performed well at the Tour Championship, so it will be difficult to narrow the eight or nine contenders down to six captain’s picks.

“No, because I think no matter what decision I make here, I could have gone the other way easily, no matter what,” Bradley continued.

“The only thing I care about is on Sunday of the Ryder Cup, that we win the Ryder Cup. Then I’ll know I made the right decision.

“Until then, I won’t know. It’s going to be pretty wild. Whatever decision we make, we’re going to have to live with it. I love the guys on our team. They’re all playing great. It’s just really something else. It’s awesome.”
