Ben Griffin takes a 2-shot lead in Napa ahead of his Ryder Cup debut

Ben Griffin established a three-shot advantage at the 2025 Procore Championship in Napa as he readies himself for his first Ryder Cup appearance, scheduled in a fortnight at Silverado.
Griffin and three other Ryder Cup rookies, including Russell Henley and Bill Spaun, used this event to maintain sharpness after many U.S. players previously lacked competition for a month.
Griffin played bogey-free for the second consecutive day with a 6-under 66, while Henley trailed by three shots despite some setbacks like a three-putt bogey.
Griffin acknowledged that while there has been some Ryder Cup-related camaraderie off the course with his teammates, once he steps up to the first tee, his focus shifts entirely to playing well in the tournament.
This tournament serves as key preparation for the U.S. team’s competitive momentum and skill fine-tuning before the Ryder Cup, with ten players involved under captain Keegan Bradley.
