How To Watch a Barracuda Championship live stream 2023
Ryan Gerard, leader after round 2, only garnered 3pts on Saturday and swapped places with Patrick Rodgers (+8pts), who now leads by 1pt. Rodgers, 31 years old and yet to win on the PGA Tour, recovered from a double bogey on the par-4 10th with an eagle on the par-5 12th and birdies on the par-4 16th and 18th. The format enables players to make huge leaps up the leaderboard, and this happened to Akshay Bhatia who climbed 29 places to 3rd with a round of +17pts.

As with last week’s Barbasol Championship, the Barracuda Championship is co-sanctioned by the PGA and DP World Tours. But this event is played to a modified Stableford format whereby points are awarded as follows on each hole:
• Albatross (Double Eagle): 8 points
• Eagle: 5 points
• Birdie: 2 points
• Par: 0 points
• Bogey: -1 point
• Double Bogey or worse: -3 points
The winner is the one who gets most points. It is designed to encourage players to ‘go for it’. For example, with a birdie worth twice as more positive points as a bogey is negative points, players are incentivised to play attacking golf. That 50-50 shot for birdie which could end up in a bogey if it fails? Well this scoring system encourages the player to risk it. Indeed, even if its 35-65 against, the rational decision would still normally be to go for it.
The Barracuda field includes five players inside the top 100 in Keith Mitchell (62), Justin Suh (71), Chez Reavie (77) JJ Spaun (86) and Mark Hubbard (91). But the tournament has a history of first-time winners.
In 2016 Greg Chalmers had his first PGA Tour win at the Barracuda Championship. It was the 386th PGA Tour event that he had played. The following year Chris Stroud was the champion, his first win on the PGA Tour, in his 290th start. Neither Chalmers nor Stroud have won again on tour, unlike the 2019 champion, for whom the Barracuda was also his first Tour victory. That year’s winner, Collin Morikawa, went on to win a Major the following season, and another one the year after that.
