PGA Champ Scottie Scheffler Makes Big Move in 3rd Round at Colonial Before Three Late Bogeys
- Scottie Scheffler surged on Saturday with a 6-under 64 at the 2025 Schwab Challenge held at the Colonial golf course in Fort Worth, Texas.
- Scheffler started the weekend 10 strokes behind the leaders after barely making the cut and faced a difficult lie in a penalty area on the par-4 seventh hole.
- He birdied eight holes and eagled the 11th, improving his total to 7-under 203 and closing the gap to six shots behind the joint leaders Ben Griffin and Matti Schmid.
- Scheffler reflected that when you start the tournament trailing by a significant margin, you need extra motivation compared to being close to the lead, which helped him focus on making early birdies.
- If Scheffler secures a victory, he would be the first golfer since 2017 to claim three consecutive tournament wins and only the second player after Ben Hogan to capture both the Byron Nelson and Colonial titles within the same year.
