How Did Bridgeman Take the Tour's Putting Lead?

Bridgeman has kept his Spider Tour mallet in the bag through wins at the Genesis Invitational and the Biltmore Championship this year, the two victories behind his season-long lead in the category.

How Is Strokes Gained: Putting Measured?

The stat comes from Shotlink data, which sets an expected number of putts from any given distance and compares each player's actual putts against that baseline. Holing a putt expected to need 1.5 attempts gains half a stroke; missing it costs half a stroke, and those margins accumulate into the ranking Bridgeman now leads.
