Keegan Bradley’s PGA Championship win was the highlight of his breakout first season. In his 28 starts this year, he finished first two times (including a win in a major) and finished in the top 10 four times. He also won the PGA Grand Slam of Golf. His recent 2011 PGA Tour Rookie of the Year win caps off what has been a remarkable season for this first-year pro.
On the Nationwide Tour in 2010, he secured his PGA Tour membership for 2011 by finishing 14th on the final Nationwide Tour money list. Golf certainly appears to run in the family. He is the nephew of LPGA star, major champion, and World Golf Hall of Fame member Pat Bradley. In fact, his Aunt Pat has offered advice and encouragement every step of the way.
