Jacob Bridgeman captured his first PGA Tour title at Riviera, leading or sharing the lead after every round and separating himself with elite putting under Sunday pressure. Nate Sharman and Josh Durso break down what made the performance sustainable — and what still looked shaky late — while also examining another close call for Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler’s unusual climb from last place into contention.
The episode also turns to pro golf’s ongoing power struggle after the DP World Tour granted select LIV players conditional releases but not Jon Rahm, raising questions about his standing and potential Ryder Cup implications. Finally, the show previews the Cognizant Classic at PGA National, a course expected to reward ball-striking and punish mistakes, along with some bets for the weekend.
