**FORT WORTH, TX -** The PGA TOUR has returned to Texas for the Charles Schwab Challenge at Colonial Country Club, following a significant $25 million restoration in 2023. Ben Griffin and Matti Schmid have emerged as the frontrunners after posting matching 2-under rounds of 68 on Saturday, placing them at 13-under par overall.
The duo will enter the final round with a four-stroke lead over the rest of the field. However, world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler remains a threat, positioned within striking distance.
Beyond the tournament itself, the Charles Schwab Challenge carries added significance as the final opportunity for players to qualify for the prestigious Memorial Tournament presented by Workday, the next Signature Event on the PGA TOUR calendar. Players are vying for spots via the Aon Swing 5 and Aon Next 10 standings.
