Griffin’s Playoff Heartbreak at Schwab

Ben Griffin stormed to a 5-under 65, locking in at 11-under for the Charles Schwab Challenge and setting up a tense finale where he hoped to become the first back-to-back winner since Ben Hogan. With rivals like Russell Henley and Eric Cole closing in, the leaderboard teetered on the edge of chaos. Griffin, who once considered quitting golf, now stands as a triumph of perseverance—having earned multiple PGA wins and a Ryder Cup spot. His clutch putting and calm demeanor carried him through, even as Henley birdied for 11-under and Cole missed a clutch putt. Though Griffin ultimately fell short in the playoff, he celebrated with the beer he’d been saving—a fitting reward for a tournament that tested every nerve and nerve.
