Congratulations to Keegan Bradley for becoming the Travelers Championship 2023 Champion!
Keegan Bradley just rocked the Travelers Championship and made New England proud! Despite some shaky moments down the stretch, he managed to build a massive lead and break the tournament record. Talk about an epic victory!
Bradley went on a birdie rampage in the first three rounds, scoring 62-63-64, which gave him a one-shot edge over Kenny Perry’s previous record from 2009. With the crowd chanting his name, the 37-year-old golf wizard sealed the deal with a 2-under 68 on the final day, finishing at a stunning 23-under 257 at TPC River Highlands.
You could see the excitement in Bradley’s eyes as he sank a 2-foot par putt on the 18th green, throwing his arms in the air and letting out a victorious yell. He ended the tournament three shots ahead of Zac Blair, who delivered an impressive 62, and Brian Harman, who closed with a strong 64.
But let’s not forget the adrenaline rush and nerves Bradley had to battle. He was flawless almost all week, with only one bogey until the final six holes when the pressure started to get to him. The PGA TOUR event he wanted to win the most proved to be a nerve-wracking journey. However, with a six-shot lead after birdying the par-4 12th hole, Bradley managed to steady his nerves and clinch the victory.
New England hasn’t seen a champion like this since J.J. Henry from Connecticut in 2006. So this is indeed a historic moment for the region!
But wait, there’s more to this exciting event! Zac Blair, a 32-year-old from Utah, put up a stellar fight, achieving his best-ever finish on the TOUR. After recovering from a torn labrum that kept him away from the game for two years, Blair is back with a bang, shooting 62 on the final day. Talk about an incredible comeback story!
In the end, the TPC River Highlands surrendered eight rounds of 62 or better this week. The course proved to be the perfect setting for some jaw-dropping performances, and it’s clear that the players took full advantage of it.
Congratulations, Keegan Bradley, on your fantastic victory! New England is cheering for you, and we can’t wait to see what you’ll do next on the greens! Keep rocking it, golfers!
