Keegan Bradley rounded out the 12-under card at Castle Pines Golf Club outside Denver, Colorado, with a one-shot victory over three players at the BMW Championship and moved into fourth place in the FedEx Cup standings.
Entering the TOUR Championship at No.4 in the FedExCup standings means he will be four strokes behind No.1 Scottie Scheffler in the First Strokes format.
Bradley was shocked to win just entering the second round of the FedExCup Playoffs.
“I am shocked because there was a time about a week ago at this time that I did not tell myself that I would come here,” he said.
“A lot of magical things had to happen for me to play in this tournament, and when I got here, I was very happy to be here.”
Bradley won the BMW championship with mixed clubs.
The newly appointed Ryder Cup captain adds his Japanese Srixon iron set with a Callaway hybrid, a 3-wood from TaylorMade and a Ping driver.
He uses the Odyssey club as his putter of choice.
His PING G430 LST driver is intended for players who generate high clubhead speed and rely on a high approach route. The 440cc LST accelerates the speed of the ball with reduced spin, the key contributors being the new Carbonfly Wrap and a new optimized surface that includes what they call Spinsistency, which combines a longer drive with a more tactile feel.
The TaylorMade Qi10 3-wood is a very popular model for both Tour players and beginners, offering the perfect combination of distance and forgiveness, while the precise center of gravity delivers a combination of high launch and low spin.
With its unique profile the Callaway Apex UW hybrid promotes the launch and benefits of a high wood range with a wide variety, and a neutral ball flight. It’s a multi-purpose offering that better players can use with confidence from the hard landing, off the fairway to the Par-5s, or from the rough.
Srixon’s ZX5 Mk IIs are the perfect combination of razor sharp looks, power, and playability as they combine forged feel, improved ball speed and distance technology with a TOUR grade iron.
Iron players with the look and pure feel of a premium blade, offering ultimate control—the ZX7 Mk II delivers the perfect package for the best players. They have a compact shape, a narrow upper line, single-piece forging and a narrow sole.
Cleveland RTX ZipCore wedges are designed to improve spin in all conditions featuring HydraZip faces, UltiZip grooves and advanced ZipCore technology for a classic wedge look.
Stephen Sweeney, a PGA Tour putting coach, is a big fan of the Odyssey Versa Jailbird putter.
“I think the biggest thing people don’t understand about that putter is the Versa element in it; black-white-black color. So it helps to get along at the beginning,” said Sweeney.
And then with the balanced part of the putter, and the Versa together, the way it works together, it almost changes itself once you start it. It is very easy to swing in the right direction. So, no, it’s not hype. It actually has other technologies in it that help it perform better.
