Furyk served as captain of the U.S. team that last September won a 10th consecutive Presidents Cup against a line-up of international players from outside Europe.
"I had the privilege of playing for him in last year's President's Cup, and his exceptional leadership, unwavering demeanor and wealth of experience made a huge impression on all of us," Bradley said."He knows what it takes to succeed in Ryder Cups, and I cannot wait to work alongside him as we prepare for Bethpage Black."
Additional vice captains will be announced later.

"There is nothing in our game quite like the experience of representing the U.S. in the Ryder Cup."
