Daniel Berger wins 2020 Charles Schwab Challenge

June 16, 2020

In this first complete golf tournament on the PGA Tour since Tyrrell Hatton on High Wycombe, England won the Arnold Palmer Invitational on March 8, it took a playoff to determine who was going to win the 2020 Charles Schwab Challenge in Fort Worth, Texas on Sunday. In the end, it was a battle between two Americans, as Daniel Berger of Plantation, Florida defeated Collin Morikawa of Los Angeles, California.

Morikawa and Berger finished 72 holes of golf each at -15. Then in the playoff, Morikawa, and Berger each played the 17th hole. Berger registered a par, while Morikawa had a bogey after missing his short par putt.

Berger shot a 5-under par, 65 in round one, back-to-back scores of 3-under par, 67 in round two and round three, and then a 4-under par, 66 in round four. For the majority of the fourth round, there were many golfers who were in contention. However many missed short putts that prevented them from either reaching the playoff or winning the tournament outright.

The 2020 Charles Schwab Challenge was played without spectators. However, this did not stop some fans from watching the exciting golf action from the yards of their homes.

This was Berger’s third career win on the PGA Tour, and first in a playoff. He previously won back-to-back titles at the FedEx St. Jude Classic in Memphis, Tennessee, before the event was part of the World Golf Championships. In 2016, Berger had a four-round score of -13 and beat a trio of Americans, Phil Mickelson, Steve Stricker, and Brooks Koepka by three strokes. Then in 2017, Berger had a four-round score of -10 and beat Charl Schwartzel of South Africa and Kim Meen-whee of South Africa by one stroke.
