Trainer and Brehm can find a few perks amid New Orleans disappointment
The disappointment on Martin Trainer’s face was obvious when he pushed a 6-foot par putt that would extended the playoff in the Zurich Classic. Shane Lowry and Rory McIlroy wound up winning over Trainer and Chad Ramey.
But it wasn’t the worst consolation prize for Trainer.
His portion of the runner-up finish was $525,100, the second-largest payoff of his PGA Tour career behind the $540,000 he earned from winning the 2019 Puerto Rico Open. It also was more than he made in all of the 2020, 2021 and 2023 seasons.
“There’s a lot of really good things to take from this week, and that’s what I’m going to do,” Trainer said. “Solo second finish in the end is still pretty good.”
Solo third also isn’t awful as Ryan Brehm can attest. The big hitter from Michigan was right in the mix with Mark Hubbard, narrowly missing out on a playoff when Brehm’s birdie putt from the fringe grazed the cup.
