Ben Griffin hangs on at Colonial for first individual golf title
Posted May 26, 2025
Ben Griffin figured it wouldn’t be easy even after breaking his tie with co-leader Matti Schmid and leading by five shots just five holes into the final round at Colonial. Schmid kept it interesting to the end. Griffin earned his first individual PGA Tour victory a month after winning a team event, shooting 1-over 71 to finish 12-under in the Charles Schwab Challenge.
