Looking at Keegan Bradley’s strokes gained tee-to-green stats from Sunday, you wonder how he ended up hoisting the Travelers Championship trophy for the second time in two years.
Bradley gained less than five-hundredths of a stroke off the tee, less than five-hundredths of a stroke on approach and lost more than 1.1 shots around the greens. So he didn’t drive it well, hit his irons well or chip well.
But with the flatstick, he was elite. Bradley gained nearly 2.5 strokes putting during Sunday’s final round, part of his nearly 6.9 strokes gained on the greens for the week, as he made 169 feet of putts on his way to a Sunday 68 that earned him his eighth PGA Tour title.
While none were more important than the six-footer he made on the 72nd hole to avoid a playoff and flip the script on Tommy Fleetwood, who had just 3-putted for bogey, Bradley also drained a 64-footer on the 9th green.
Keegan Bradley’s Round 4 winning highlights from Travelers
In the final round of the 2025 PGA Championship, Keegan Bradley carded a 2-under 68 to notch a dramatic comeback victory for his eighth win on the PGA TOUR.
Bradley’s putter is the Odyssey Ai-ONE Jailbird Cruiser, a putter he helped re-popularize two years ago when he won twice at the Zozo Championship and Travelers Championship. The Jailbird shape, originally released 10 years prior, was almost forgotten about until Wyndham Clark, Bradley and Rickie Fowler won in consecutive weeks with the putter in the summer of 2023.

All three players used a counterbalanced configuration and the putter helped revitalize Bradley and Fowler’s careers, while launching Clark into the game’s upper echelon.
Last year, Bradley stayed in the same Versa Jailbird shape, but upgraded to the new Ai-ONE model, which includes the company’s new Ai-ONE insert, which features Ai-designed contours aimed at providing consistent ball speeds across the face.
Bradley’s Cruiser configuration pairs a longer shaft and grip with a heavier head to help stabilize the hands through the putting stroke.
