Ben Griffin Looking to Repeat This Week at Colonial
It was a breakthrough victory last season for Ben Griffin, who parlayed that into his first Ryder Cup team. He'll now be trying to join Ben Hogan as the only players to win this event back-to-back, but there are a plethora of guys in much better form attempting to stop him. He's recently turned the tides of his 2026 season, with a solo third and T14 finishes in two of his last three starts. However, there is still an overwhelming cause for pause regarding Griffin's DFS viability. Ranking outside the top 100 in both strokes gained off the tee and on approach, the ball striking is still clearly not there. He hasn't gained strokes with his approach play in his last six starts. The putter has had to go crazy for him to compete, which isn't always an easy thing to count on. This isn't to say the former Tarheel is a full fade heading into Thursday, but those willing to bite on the recent finishes need to know the high-risk game they're playing.
