In 2011 - eight years after Ben Curtis became the first player since Francis Ouimet in 1913 to win in his first major - Keegan Bradley pulled off the same astonishing feat at the PGA Championship.
Five behind with three holes to play, the nephew of Pat Bradley - winner of six women's majors - stormed back to beat Jason Dufner in a play-off. It made him the first player to win a major with a long putter and led to a Ryder Cup debut where he won three times with Phil Mickelson.
They resumed that partnership in 2014 – the last time he played in the Ryder Cup - after a season in which he tied for fourth in both the US Open and WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, an event he won in 2012 with a closing 64.
Bradley also played for the United States in the 2013 and 2024 Presidents Cup, securing their match-winning point in September.
In 2018 he ended more than six years without a victory by beating Justin Rose in a play-off for the BMW Championship, but then went another four years before adding the 2022 Zozo Championship and then the Travelers Championship.
