Bradley’s journey as a below-the-knee amputee began in September 2014 due to a prolonged battle with osteomyelitis and multiple surgeries. His pivotal moment came three weeks prior to the amputation when he accompanied Jeff Linton, then president of Midwestern Amputee Golf Association (MWAGA) , on a ride. This encounter marked the beginning of Bradley’s deep involvement in adaptive golf.
In 2015, Bradley attended his inaugural MWAGA tournament, followed by joining the MWAGA Board in 2016. Since assuming the presidency in 2017, Bradley has been a driving force in both regional and national adaptive golf circles. He serves as the Midwest Trustee for the National Amputee Golf Association and led the 2022 Phoenix Cup team, representing the USA in England.
Beyond the greens, Bradley cherishes time with his family in McHenry, IL, where he resides with his wife, Heidi, and their children, Brooke and Tyler. Additionally, he plays a pivotal role as the Director of Friends of McHenry Golf, a non-profit dedicated to nurturing junior golf in the community. Professionally, Bradley serves as a Multimedia Instructional Designer in Rolling Meadows, IL. In this capacity, he spearheads the creation of training and eLearning content delivered globally to employees, partners, and end-users.
