Ties for 33rd in Japan Putnam carded a one-under 70 on Sunday at the Baycurrent Classic to finish six-under and tied for 33rd.

Impact Putnam managed to hole just 14 total birdies throughout his week in Japan, despite ranking T3 among the field in GIR percentage and first in fairway proximity from 175-200 yards. However, he uncharacteristically struggled on the greens, finishing 69th of 72 in putting percentage from 10-plus feet. Nonetheless, Putnam's T33 is his best result since a T17 at the Charles Schwab Challenge back in late May.

Barely misses cut in Detroit Putnam missed the cut at the Rocket Classic by one stroke following an even-par 70.

Impact Putnam was right on the three-under cut line Friday before his bogey on the par-4 13th, and he was unable to gain the stroke he needed over his final five holes of the second round. Putnam lost 2.68 strokes off the tee in the second round, connecting on only six of 14 fairways (42.9 percent). He entered the week 71st in the FedExCup Standings, but only the top-70 qualify for the playoffs. He'll tee off next week at the Wyndham Championship, the final regular-season tournament on the 2026 PGA Tour calendar. Putnam has made the cut only twice in six prior outings at Sedgefield Country Club.

MC by four strokes at 3M Open Putnam posted a one-over cumulative score at the 3M Open to miss the cut by four strokes.

Impact Putnam opened the tournament nicely with a two-under 69, but his second round was marred by two double bogeys, ultimately sinking him to a three-over 74 score. His struggles Friday came off the tee, losing 2.70 strokes in that category while connecting on seven of 14 fairways. It was the fifth MC in 19 tournaments this season for Putnam, who has finished outside the top-50 in each of his last five outings. He'll look to bounce back at the Rocket Classic next week, where he finished T8 in 2025.

Slips to T51 after Sunday 74 Putnam carded a three-over 74 in the final round of the John Deere Classic to finish tied for 51st.

Impact Putnam was 11-under through the first three rounds and was sitting just outside the top-10 of the leaderboard heading into Sunday. He was even through the front nine of the final round but was sunk by back-to-back double bogeys on the 14th and 15th holes, and he's now finished outside the top-50 in four of his last five tournaments (including T55 at the PGA Championship and T65 at the U.S. Open). Putnam was one of the better performers on the green at TPC Deere Run, gaining 4.79 strokes with his putter (ninth) while also ranking seventh in feet of putts made and 26th in SG: Approach. However, he also lost 5.54 strokes off the tee, which was dead last out of the 79 players who made the cut. Putnam will tee off next week at the Genesis Scottish Open, where he's missed the cut in each of the last two years following his T42 in his event debut in 2023.

Earns last spot in final qualifying Putnam will play in the U.S. Open next week at Shinnecock Hills after advancing through final qualifying in Creswell, OR.

Impact Only two spots were available for this qualifier in Oregon and Putnam was able to secure the last spot. It was by no means easy as he battled rainy and windy conditions to post three-under-par. It was matched by Spencer Tibbits and the two players went to a playoff after Greyson Leach earned medalist honors at four-under-par. Putnam and Tibbits played six playoff holes on Monday night before they were forced to call it for the day due to darkness. After three more playoff holes on Tuesday morning, Putnam finally outlasted Tibbits to secure his sixth U.S. Open appearance. Putnam will have a busy week as he is slated to compete at the RBC Canadian Open that will tee off Thursday morning before heading the following week to Shinnecock.

Even-par over final three rounds Putnam finished tied for 17th at the Charles Schwab Challenge after recording a six-under cumulative score.

Impact After withdrawing from THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson, Putnam opened things up at Colonial Country Club nicely with a bogey-free, six-under 64. However, he was unable to carry that momentum for the rest of the tournament, carding three-consecutive rounds of 70. He led the tournament in SG: Around-the-Green, gaining 6.81 strokes in that category, while also ranking first in bogeys and scrambling and 21st in SG: Putting. However, he also finished dead last in driving distance and 73rd in SG: Off-the-Tee (minus-4.54 strokes). It was the fourth top-20 finish of the season for Putnam and his best performance since his T5 at the Valero Texas Open. He's an alternate for the Memorial Tournament next week.

Fourth in SG: APP at RBC Heritage Putnam carded a one-under 70 on Sunday at the RBC Heritage to finish six-under and tied for 42nd.

Cracks top-5 at Valero Putnam posted a 15-under cumulative score at the Valero Texas Open to finish tied with Ludvig Aberg for fifth.

Impact Putnam was one of a handful of players jockeying at the top of the leaderboard during the final round. He needed a birdie on the par-5 18th to tie J.J. Spaun at the top of the leaderboard, but Putnam's third shot ended up finding the green-side bunker, eventually leading to a bogey. It wasn't the finish that Putnam was hoping for, but the 37-year-old American now has two top-5 finishes to his name this season and has made the cut in five consecutive Tour events. He ranked in the top-5 in the field in SG: Putting, SG: Approach, birdies made, driving accuracy and scrambling. Putnam is not in the field for The Masters next week.
