Professional career
Bryan played on mini-tours before earning his Web.com Tour card for 2016 by finishing T-9 at qualifying school.[2][4] In his third event of the 2016 season, he won the Chitimacha Louisiana Open.[5]
He picked up a second win a month later at the El Bosque Mexico Championship. In August, he won his third event of the season, the Digital Ally Open, to earn promotion to the PGA Tour.[6] He was the 11th golfer to do so. He won the Web.com Tour Player of the Year award.[7]
On April 16, 2017, Bryan secured his first PGA Tour victory at the RBC Heritage and earned a spot at the 2018 Masters Tournament. He won by a single stroke over Luke Donald, after a final round of 67 moved him through the field from four strokes behind. With the win, Bryan moved up to 37th in the Official World Golf Ranking, his career-best ranking to date.[8]
Over his career, he has achieved 15 top-10 finishes and 37 top-25 finishes on the PGA Tour, with total earnings exceeding $5.36 million.
In 2025, Bryan was suspended indefinitely from the PGA Tour due to his participation in the LIV Duels creator event.[9] He was previously permitted to play in the Creator Classic, an amateur tournament for social media/YouTube golfers presented by the PGA Tour.[10] He played in the first two Creator Classics, finishing in 2nd and 6th place respectively.[11]
