His second full season on the PGA Tour was a greater success, where he played in 28 events and made 15 cuts, including six top-25 finishes.

On 30 March 2014, Bowditch won his maiden title on the PGA Tour, at the Valero Texas Open.

The win qualified Bowditch to play in the Masters Tournament and the PGA Championship for the first time in his career.

He posted a score of −18 to finish four shots ahead of Charley Hoffman, Jimmy Walker and Scott Pinckney to claim a wire-to-wire victory.

His play during the season was good enough to earn a captain's pick for the 2015 Presidents Cup and a career high world ranking of 54th.
