2026 Fantasy Outlook
Bridgeman got about as much out of his season as he possibly could have. While he didn't play well that often, the 26-year-old certainly took advantage of the weeks everything was clicking with four top-5 finishes. The ball striking was very inconsistent ranking outside the top 120 on Tour in both SG: Off-the-Tee and SG: Approach. The putter saved him more often than not, however, as he was top 20 in SG: Putting. The short game was also pretty reliable as well, especially over the second half of the year. Bridgeman's floor is quite low going into 2026 given how much pressure he puts on the putter. Unless the ball striking takes a sizable leap, it's very unlikely Bridgeman is able to clear $4 million again on the PGA Tour. Read Past Outlooks
T26 at John Deere Classic
July 6, 2026
Bridgeman carded a bogey-free, four-under 67 in the final round of the John Deere classic to finish tied for 26th.
ANALYSIS
Bridgeman was unable to replicate the success he had last year at TPC Deere Run (T5), but he still cracked the top-30 of the leaderboard after going seven-under over the weekend. He finished T10 in scrambling, T16 in driving accuracy and in the top-30 in SG: Off-the-Tee, Approach and Putting, but he lost 2.45 strokes around the green (73rd). Bridgeman has just one top-25 finish over his last 10 tournaments (T11 at the RBC Canadian Open), but he's 12th in the FedExCup Standings thanks in large part to his victory at The Genesis Invitational and T5 at THE PLAYERS. He'll take a week's break before teeing off at The Open Championship, which will be his debut at golf's oldest major.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
Bridgeman was one of the best putters on Tour in 2024 ranking top-10 in strokes gained on the greens. He also was inside the top-65 of GIR percentage and SG: Around-the-Green. Like a lot of other players towards his side of the membership, not being able to get into Signature Events does limit his upside in salary cap leagues, but there are certainly signs that Bridgeman is capable of making the FedExCup playoffs and maybe even the top-50 in 2025. His top-five ranking in par-4 scoring gives a pretty good indication of his ability.
Bridgeman closed out his 2023 KFT campaign with four straight top-20s from the Albertsons Boise Open through the Korn Ferry Tour Championship to solidify a 14th-place finish in the points list, earning a PGA Tour card for the first time at 23 years old. The Clemson University product racked up 14 top-25s and six top-10s on the KFT this past season, while ranking No. 1 in scrambling, second in par-4 scoring and fourth in total birdies. He also made two starts on the PGA Tour, ultimately making the cut at both the Fortinet Championship and The RSM Classic during the 2022 fall series.
