It is a move that makes sense in so many ways that Keegan Bradley cannot stop smiling. He and his wife, Jillian, are returning to their New England roots and have bought a home in Newburyport, Mass.
“I can’t tell you how excited I am,” said Bradley, 36, now in his 13th year on the PGA Tour. “I’ve missed (New England) so much.”
Both Keegan and Jillian were born in Vermont, though he has also lived in Portsmouth, N.H., and famously in Hopkinton, Mass., where he teamed with Jon Curran to lead Hopkinton High School to an MIAA State Championship in the fall of 2003.
