Griffin and Schmid Share Lead at Colonial, with Scheffler Lurking

Ben Griffin and Matti Schmid were tied for first place at 11 under par following the completion of the second round at the Charles Schwab Challenge held at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas, on May 23, 2025.
Griffin arrived at this position fresh off his Zurich Classic win a month earlier, having gained momentum from several recent top-10 finishes, while Schmid, a 27-year-old German, was aiming to secure his inaugural tour win after 78 previous starts.
Both players shot a 7-under 63 Friday, with Griffin making eight birdies including seven from inside 10 feet and Schmid maintaining a bogey-free round on tight fairways.
Griffin shared that over recent years, he has made steady progress towards securing his first victory. He described this season as a significant breakthrough but believes there is still more success ahead.
Their shared lead applies pressure on contenders such as rookie John Pak and world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, indicating a highly competitive final round with Griffin potentially heading toward a significant career milestone this season.
