Griffin captured his first individual stroke-play victory at the 2025 Charles Schwab Challenge with a final-round 71 at Colonial Country Club, finishing at 12-under-par to <a href=\"https:\/\/dbltakesports.com\/index.php\/2025\/05\/24\/ben-griffin-and-matti-schmid-surge-to-top-at-charles-schwab-challenge\/\" title=\"\">edge out Matti Schmid <\/a>by one stroke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMy golf game felt great all week long. I was very confident out there,\u201d Griffin said in his post-round press conference. \u201cPut in a lot of hard work really all of this year\u2026 and I\u2019ve been really proud of not only putting in the hard work but seeing some results.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Ben Griffin Reacts to Winning the 2025 Charles Schwab Challenge | Post-Round Press Conference\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2J4LGBlI6zY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ben Griffin eagled the first hole on Sunday to build an early lead, becoming just the fourth player since 1983 to do so en route to a win, but the back nine turned into a test of mental toughness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI took advantage of the early holes. Kind of had some hiccups mid-round,\u201d he said. \u201cThe back nine was quite the grind\u2026 I didn\u2019t go into the back nine only hoping to hit I think one or two greens in regulation\u2026 It\u2019s just very difficult, very challenging.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Griffin credited his short game for getting him through the pressure-packed finish. After Matti Schmid chipped in for birdie on 18, Griffin was forced to make a four-footer to avoid a playoff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cCertainly when I&#8217;m over my chip on 18, you always have to expect your opponent to make their next shot,\u201d Griffin said. \u201cAfter he chipped in, I was, like, \u2018All right, I guess you have to make this one now, as opposed to lagging it up there.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The victory also provided personal validation. Griffin referenced criticism on social media following his earlier win at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pgatour.com\/article\/news\/latest\/2025\/04\/27\/ben-griffin-andrew-novak-win-zurich-classic-of-new-orleans-first-pga-tour-victory\" title=\"\">Zurich Classic<\/a>\u2014a team event with partner Andrew Novak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThere&#8217;s definitely some hate comments I got last night, and I used that as fuel today to get an individual win,\u201d Griffin said. \u201cSome people were questioning my ability to win individual tournaments or the Zurich doesn&#8217;t count\u2026 I just used that as fuel.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While he downplayed any notion of redemption, Griffin was clear on what this moment means.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDefinitely validation. It\u2019s really nice to get the validation,\u201d he said. \u201cTo be the last man standing on 18 is an incredible, incredible feeling\u2026 It\u2019s one that I want to keep feeling.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This win comes on the heels of an 8th-place finish at the PGA Championship, Griffin\u2019s first made cut in a major, and propels him to No. 5 in the FedExCup standings and No. 24 in the Official World Golf Ranking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt&#8217;s crazy how fast things can change in this game,\u201d he said. \u201cNow I\u2019m at the point where I feel like I\u2019m starting to show that I am an elite golfer. I can compete against the best.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As for what\u2019s next? Griffin said he and his fianc\u00e9e plan to take the custom-built Schwab Defender 110 truck, the tournament\u2019s signature prize, for a ride to the beach before the Memorial Tournament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Ben Griffin wins the 2025 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/CharlesSchwabChallenge?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#CharlesSchwabChallenge<\/a>!
