For the third in time in four weeks, the PGA Tour has a first-time winner. The latest is 25-year-old Ryan Gerard.
Like Wiliam Mouw a week ago, Gerard was victorious in an opposite-field event, but, a win is a win is a win and Gerard joins the likes of Collin Morikawa and Akshay Bhatia in making the Barracuda Championship his first PGA Tour victory.

Gerard found the winner's circle in his 47th start as a pro on Tour.
