The PGA of America has named PGA Past President Suzy Whaley as captain of the 2025 United States Junior Ryder Cup team.
He will lead the US team of six boys and six girls as they compete in the 13th Junior Ryder Cup at Nassau Country Club and Bethpage Black in New York, September 23-25, 2025.
Whaley, who served as the 41st PGA President, was inducted into the PGA of America Hall of Fame in 2023. A PGA Master Professional, he is one of the 'Top 100 Golf Teachers in America' and serves as an analyst for ESPN.
Whaley, who captained the victorious US teams in the 2022 PGA Cup and the 2019 Women's PGA Cup, said: “I couldn't be more excited to be the captain of the 2025 United States Junior Ryder Cup team. The Junior Ryder Cup is undoubtedly one of the highlights of Ryder Cup week and provides a global platform for these highly talented young players to compete. I look forward to leading our team in New York next September.”
