With three top-15 finishes in his four previous starts prior to that missed cut, Bridgeman has demonstrated significant upside. Gdula highlighted Bridgeman's excellent putting skills and adequate tee-to-green game, making him a compelling rebound DFS pick at a salary of $9,600 despite recent struggles.

David Barnett recommended fading Jacob Bridgeman this week in DFS lineups due to his extensive recent playing schedule.

While acknowledging Bridgeman's current form and public attention, Tamboline questioned whether his Florida success will translate effectively to the Houston Open, expressing mild skepticism given the elevated expectations and added DFS popularity.

Ryan Pohle suggests taking Jacob Bridgeman at 45-1 odds, noting his recent rise on the Tour, citing his runner-up finish at PGA National followed by a solo third the previous week.

Alex Hunter recommended Jacob Bridgeman ($8,400 DraftKings price) in DFS lineups this week based on his strong results and skill set. Bridgeman finished T3rd last week at the challenging Valspar Championship, just two strokes behind Viktor Hovland, and boasts finishes of second place, T15, and T3 over his past month, signaling top-notch form. Hunter also noted Bridgeman is ranked 14th in Total Strokes Gained and 24th in par-5 performance this season—particularly important because the previous four winners at Memorial Park all finished top-10 in par-5 efficiency. Bridgeman placed a respectable T21 at Memorial Park in his debut last year and, significantly improved in world ranking (up 130 spots to No. 70), Hunter expects him to top that result comfortably this year.

Nick Borrman pointed out Jacob Bridgeman as an under-the-radar option worth considering for top-20 or leaderboard bets at the Houston Open. Despite being a less-known player to casual golf followers, Bridgeman has shown impressive recent form, reflected in his high strokes-gained ranking compared to more prominent names like Wyndham Clark. Borrman noted Bridgeman's strong finish recently and previous experience playing Memorial Park, suggesting this combination of good recent form and familiarity with the course made him a valuable sleeper pick for bettors and DFS lineups this week.

Given these attributes, both Kenny & Byron considers Bridgeman a legitimate contender moving forward and recommended paying close fantasy attention to him in upcoming DFS events.

Matt Gannon is looking to fade Jacob Bridgeman at Memorial Park this week, despite praising him previously. Bridgeman, a player comfortable on Bermuda and the Southeastern courses he's grown accustomed to playing, has openly discussed discomfort adjusting to other grass types and layouts at this stage of his career. As Memorial Park diverges significantly from the Bermuda-heavy courses Bridgeman prefers, Gannon believes this is not a good fit for him yet. Consequently, he recommends fading Bridgeman in matchup bets due to this key mismatch in course conditions and playing surface familiarity.

Eric Polzin named Jacob Bridgeman one of his favorite dark horse DFS and betting options for the Houston Open, highlighting his impressive recent form including a third-place finish last week and other strong top-15 results.

Polzin specifically cited his betting odds at 50-1 as providing strong value given recent competitive performances.

Wes Reynolds identifies value in Jacob Bridgeman at 66-1 following his ascending form on challenging Florida courses. Bridgeman recently cracked the top-100 OWGR for the first time after a runner-up finish at the Cognizant Classic, followed by a solid top-15 at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Reynolds highlights that Bridgeman ranks 14th on Tour in Strokes Gained: Total, making him a strong sleeper candidate at Valspar amid challenging conditions this week at Copperhead.

Matt Gannon highlighted Jacob Bridgeman as a standout sleeper pick at just $5,300, calling special attention to his performance history on Bermuda grass courses. Bridgeman posted impressive finishes, including a T15 at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and T2 at the Cognizant Founders Cup, both primarily Bermuda surfaces. Despite Bridgeman's limited track record and his first appearance at THE PLAYERS Championship, Gannon urged listeners to proactively roster him given his potential upside on these greens, believing Bridgeman could soon become known as a strong Bermuda specialist. Gannon suggested getting in early before Bridgeman's skillset becomes widely recognized and his DFS price rises accordingly.
