On May 25th, 2025, Round Three of the Charles Schwab Challenge saw Ben Griffin and Matti Schmid shoot 68s to reach thirteen-under, establishing a commanding four-shot lead heading into Sunday.

• Ben Griffin and Matti Schmid both carded 68s to reach -13, creating a significant four-shot buffer over the field. Their steady play contrasted with the challenging conditions at Colonial Country Club.
• Griffin, buoyed by his recent Zurich win, stated, "I'm a PGA Tour winner now, so that helps," reflecting his aggressive "pedal is down" mindset.
• Schmid's highlight included a dramatic 40-foot putt on the third, prompting a commentator to exclaim, "Are you kidding me Billy Ray?!"

• Rickie Fowler (67, -9) leads the pursuit, while World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler fired a 64 to get to -7, and Akshay Bhatia (-8) plays with emotional inspiration for the late Grayson Murray.
• Scheffler, despite "some sloppy bogeys," feels he has an "outside chance" after a round featuring a "miraculous par save" on seven and an eagle on eleven.
• Bhatia, remembering Murray, shared, "Hopefully, he's watching over me tomorrow... send me some inspiration," believing Colonial's "firm, fast, and windy conditions" suit his game.

• Colonial Country Club lived up to its "Hogan's Alley" reputation with gusty winds and firming greens, making fairway accuracy paramount for all contenders.
• Bhatia described the wind as "significantly more extreme," while Scheffler noted holes 12-14 were "really challenging," with all agreeing hitting fairways is key.
• Lucas Glover provided a highlight with a holed-out eagle on the sixth during his 64 (to -6), prompting a commentator to declare, "And it did go in. Sixty four for Lucas!" Robert MacIntyre also impressed with a 64 (to -8).
