Joe Highsmith entered a rare club of PGA Tour winners accomplishing a feat at the 2025 Cognizant Classic that had not been seen in nearly a decade.

Highsmith closed with weekend rounds of 64-64 on a toughening par-71 Champion course to claim his first PGA Tour title in unexpected fashion at PGA National.

The PGA Tour's annual Florida Swing began this week when players traveled to PGA National for the 2025 Cognizant Classic. Headlined by a slew of stars, the Cognizant Classic represents the final opportunity for those not otherwise qualified to play themselves into next week's signature event at the Arnold Palmer Invitational.
