Keegan Brad lifted the trophy at TPC River Highlands on Sunday, a sweet moment for the New Englander.
Bradley, who ended a four-year PGA Tour win drought in October last year, is now back on top eight months later. The 2023 Travelers championship fan favorite had just as much, if not even more pressure on him than any other player in Cromwell.
“The Travelers was the first PGA Tour I ever attended as a child.” “I drove from Vermont to watch David Duval,” he said Sunday evening.
The last question he was asked during his press conference was about text messages that he has been receiving.
Bradley, a Jordan athlete on the PGA Tour, said: “Of Course Michael Jordan texted, and that’s a lot for me.” “He is not only my hero, but also one of my best friends. Timmy Wakefield, Boston Red Sox. Baba Booey, from Howard Stern, texted me. It was probably my favourite.
“I did a quick scan. I had 2,300 texts, and I saw this. Aaron Rodgers. It meant a great deal, even though he now plays for the Jets. When you receive a text message from an athlete, it’s a special moment because they understand what it takes to do something like this. It means a lot.
