Other golfers had their own stories at the 2025 Charles Schwab Challenge. Tommy Fleetwood was within three strokes of Griffin but a bogey on the 11th hole ended his chances. He now has 41 top-10 finishes without a victory. Scottie Scheffler had a slow start but finished strong with a third-round 64. He notched his sixth straight top-10 finish. Rickie Fowler had a nervy final round but moved up in the FedEx Cup standings. Jordan Spieth showed flashes of brilliance but struggled to put it all together. Daniel Berger had a bad start and missed the cut. He will need to work on his putting if he wants to return to the winner's circle.
