    Keegan Bradley, a local favorite and the captain of the U.S. Ryder Cup team, came to the final hole of the Travelers Championship needing a birdie and some help to win for the second time in three years on Sunday. Needless to say, he received both.

    Trailing leader Tommy Fleetwood by one on the 18th at the TPC River Highlands, Bradley hit a perfect tee shot that was matched by Fleetwood. The latter, seeking his first PGA Tour victory, hit his approach just inches short of the green, 50 feet from the hole. Bradley followed with a brilliant second to just shy of six feet of the hole.

    Fleetwood's lag putt came up seven feet short and he missed his par putt, resulting in a bogey. It add insult to injury, he was putting essentially on the same like as Bradley, giving the U.S. Ryder Cup captain a read for a birdie putt that would now win him the tournament. Bradley followed by holing his birdie putt for the victory, a stunning reversal and a two-stroke swing that had the crowd chanting “USA, USA, USA.”
