Keegan Bradley has developed over the years the friendship with Michael Jordan, with the 34-year-old golfer who is one of the sponsors of MJ’s Jordan Brand – which is a pretty sick support affair to grasp – and at the same time have the opportunity to stay with the six-time NBA champion over the years. So to suggest that Bradley knows a thing or two about Jordan’s ruthless competitiveness is an understatement.

In fact, fans saw how much Bradley and His Airness broke each other a couple of years ago, when Jordan passed the Charlotte Hornets Twitter account to give Keegan shit, reminding the golfer that he is the one who wears Jordan’s shoes for sure, not vice versa.

I mean, everyone knows that Michael Jordan shows no mercy, so this kind of talk is probably expected by Keegan Bradley. In conclusion: if MJ feels disrespectful to someone, he will do anything to embarrass that person. He is carefree – and a little mean – but there is no question of the results. We all saw it during the stories of The Last Dance documentary earlier this year.

With Keegan Bradley fully aware of his friend, the golfer offered some advice when playing a round with Jordan and obviously involved limiting speeches as much as possible.

During a recent interview with GOLF.com, Bradley said that once he binds Jordan, he will exploit your weakness. It will enter your head. It will make you suffocate as it continues to press and compete. Basically, it makes you self-destruct.

“The thing with MJ is that if you can make him fall, you have to defeat him.”

“If you start talking and get excited, he’ll start pressing you,” Bradley said. “He likes to push you to make you uncomfortable, so you have to put him down.”

Bradley’s strategy for keeping Jordan out of his pocket? Keeping your mouth shut.

“Every time I lower it, I don’t say much,” he said. “I only deal with my business. I can’t pick a favorite story because there are too many. It’s like you can’t choose your favorite baby. “

Considering the fact that Michael Jordan finds some reason to add a chip to his shoulder – just ask George Karl – and that he feeds on being pushed, it makes sense that Keegan Bradley simply avoids running his mouth over the golf course. I mean, MJ will talk about shit if he’s winning or losing, so hitting the bear is never a smart idea. There are so many stories about the opponents who did it and, well, we all know how it turned out for them.
