Keegan Bradley finished runner-up at the 2023 Farmers Insurance Open, which concluded on Saturday, January 28. Max Homa won the tournament after the final round with a scoring deficit of 13, while Bradley missed an opportunity to win the tournament by two shots. He finished the final round with a scoring deficit of six and the tournament with -11.

Keegan Bradley became the first golfer with a win and runner-up on the PGA Tour this season. Bradley won the Zozo Championship held from October 13 to 16 in Chiba, Japan. The tournament was part of the 2022-23 season of the PGA Tour and he has now finished runner-up at the Farmers Insurance Open, which took place at Torrey Pines.

The PGA Tour's communications team shared a post on their social media page, saying:

"With a final-round 66 to finish second, Keegan Bradley is the first player with a win (ZOZO CHAMPIONSHIP) and runner-up (Farmers Insurance Open) on TOUR this season."

It is important to mention that Jon Rahm has won two PGA Tour events this season. The Spaniard topped the leaderboard of the Sentry Tournament of Champions and then recently won The American Express.

He competed in the Farmers Insurance Open but finished in seventh place. Rahm was 116 in the first round. He would have been eliminated from the championship, but eventually played a few shots in the second round and finished in T14.

After the third round, Rahm was in second place. However, in the finale, his shots were not enough to defeat Max Homa.

With this win, Homa earned $1,566,000 in prize money, and Keegan Bradley took home $984,300.
