Charles Schwab Challenge prepares for exciting contest with Jordan Speith as home favourite

Daily Mail  

A dazzling number of wonderful winning storylines have moved into view as the sport seeks to complete its successful return from the lockdown with a fairytale champion of the Charles Schwab Challenge in Fort Worth, Texas. The Charles Schwab Challenge in Forth Worth, Texas has left golf fans with a thrilling contest Jordan Speith is a strong contender in his hometown and on a familiar golf course Meanwhile, Harold Varner is trying to becoming the eight African-American PGA Tour winner Even more evocative would be a first tour win for Harold Varner, trying to become just the eighth African–American to claim a victory on the PGA Tour. Rory McIlroy had a promising start but traded birdies and bogeys in equal number ‘I didn’t feel like I played very well but I’m still within striking distance, so if that’s the bad day, let’s see if I can go out tomorrow and post a low one,’ reasoned the world number one. ‘The important thing is I’m still in with a chance, and it’s going to be all out attack in the final round.’ Justin Rose was another player who endured one of those humdrum days Two more major winners who will fancy their chances are world number four Justin Thomas and US Open Champion Gary Woodland, who have moved stealthily into position. Round of the day came from Texan Patrick Reed, as the former Masters champion raced through the field with a 63 to move alongside McIlroy and Rose and become yet another who’s given himself a chance to win this intriguing first event back.
