American Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley won 11 skins, including nine over two holes, and won the Skins Game with $2.1 million in the competition’s return after 17 years.
Bradley holed a 7-foot putt on the No. 13 hole at Panther National to win $900,000 because money from the previous three holes had carried over.
Bradley’s first victory was worth five skins on the first hole while no one won the first four holes.

Tommy Fleetwood won the final hole which was worth three skins with carryovers and, as the money increased towards the end of the 16-hole competition, Fleetwood collected $1,125,000.
This was the biggest skin win, inevitable given that the total purse was only $1 million during the last edition of the Skins Game in 2008.
Skin game rules:
| The player with the most money at the end wins. |
| A hole is won by the player with the fewest number of strokes on a given hole. |
| The winner of the hole receives the value of the hole plus any money and skins carried over. |
| If two or more players are tied on a given hole, the value of the skin and hole money is carried over and added to the next hole. |

There were some adjustments this time. It took place over 16 holes Friday morning, instead of 18 holes spread over two days over the Thanksgiving weekend.
Additionally, while each player started with $1 million, money was deducted when someone else won skins.
