Bridgeman’s path to victory began with a strong opening round where he shared the lead at 5-under alongside McIlroy. He maintained his position atop the leaderboard through the second round with a 7-under performance, then took sole possession of first place after the third round with another 7-under effort. Despite posting a 1-over final round, his earlier strong play provided enough cushion to secure the victory.
