Jacob Bridgeman Climbs Leaderboard on Moving Day at Memorial
Jacob Bridgeman Climbs Leaderboard on Moving Day at Memorial originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Former Clemson standout Jacob Bridgeman is making his presence felt at Jack Nicklaus's Muirfield Village, carding a steady 1-under 71 on a challenging "Moving Day" Saturday at the Memorial Tournament presented by Workday. The Inman, South Carolina native, a decorated Tiger during his collegiate career, has climbed into the top 10, positioning himself for a potentially lucrative Sunday finish at one of the PGA TOUR's signature events. © Aaron Doster-Imagn Images Bridgeman, who entered the day at even par after rounds of 73 and 71, navigated the notoriously tough Muirfield Village layout with composure. While others battled the demanding course, the young pro put together a solid round that included a timely birdie on the par-5 15th, showcasing the talent that saw him become Clemson's career leader in rounds in the 60s and a multiple All-American. Advertisement His 1-under par performance in the third round moved him to 1-under for the tournament, tied for 9th as he walked off the 18th green. While not the lowest round of the day – Sepp Straka, for instance, fired a blistering 6-under 66 – Bridgeman's steady hand kept him moving in the right direction on a day when big numbers lurked around every corner. This strong showing isn't a complete surprise to those who followed his stellar Clemson career. Bridgeman was a force for the Tigers, earning ACC Scholar-Athlete of the Year honors twice and etching his name in the Clemson record books with five collegiate victories, tying legends like D.J. Trahan and Chris Patton. That pedigree is now being tested against the world's best on one of golf's grandest stages. Muirfield Village, Jack Nicklaus's masterpiece, is known for its immaculate conditioning and stern test of every facet of a player's game. For a young player like Bridgeman, who turned pro in 2022, a strong performance here, against a field featuring the likes of Scottie Scheffler and defending champion (from 2024, as per search results) Ben Griffin, is a significant step. He'll enter Sunday looking to continue his ascent, drawing on the experience gained from a celebrated amateur and collegiate career that prepared him for moments like these. Clemson fans will undoubtedly be tuning in, hoping to see their former Tiger roar on Sunday at the Memorial. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 1, 2025, where it first appeared.
