Ben Griffin’s journey to the PGA Tour has been nothing short of inspiring. Once a mortgage loan officer with no clear path to professional golf, Griffin has defied the odds with his stunning return to the game. After securing his PGA Tour card for the 2025 season, he has quickly emerged as one of the most consistent players, with two wins in his rookie year, including a thrilling one-stroke victory at the Charles Schwab Challenge.
Next on Griffin’s schedule is the prestigious Memorial Tournament, where he’ll compete against an elite field, all vying for a share of the \$20 million prize pool. This will be a crucial tournament for Griffin, who has struggled at Muirfield Village in previous appearances. Despite falling short in his last two attempts, he’s determined to rewrite his Memorial story and prove that his early success is no fluke.
After the Memorial Tournament, Griffin will take on the challenge at the US Open at Oakmont, another opportunity to cement his place among golf’s best. Fans and analysts alike will be watching closely to see if this promising rookie can continue his remarkable rise and break through at one of golf’s most iconic events.
