Keegan Bradley Stands Up for Bethpage Crew Amid Player Complaints

Keegan Bradley, the U. S. Captain, had a different take on the recent golf drama. While some players, like Justin Thomas, complained about the course conditions, Bradley saw things differently. He praised the Bethpage Black crew, saying the course was in top shape. No grass was out of place, and everything looked perfect. This was a stark contrast to Thomas's claims. Thomas had called the setup "bizarre" and said the agronomy team argued with players about green speeds.Bradley didn't just dismiss Thomas's complaints. He highlighted the crew's hard work. He mentioned that the greens might not have been as fast as they wanted, but that was due to the course's design, not the crew's effort. The greens at Bethpage are flat, which means even small growth can slow them down. Bradley explained that this is just part of the game. He didn't blame the crew for the slow greens. Instead, he praised them for their great work. In the end, Bradley's message was clear. The greens were slow, and the U. S. team struggled, but that's just how the game goes sometimes. It's not the crew's fault.
