PGA Tour golfer Ben Griffin says he 'overdosed' on creatine amid bad start to BMW Championship final round

Kai Trump, the granddaughter of President Donald Trump, explains how her love for golf, which she will be playing at the University of Miami in 2026, was influenced by her grandfather.

PGA Tour golfer Ben Griffin may have had an outside shot at winning the BMW Championship on Sunday if he put together a round similar to how he did on Thursday.

But Griffin’s Sunday started out less than ideal. He carded at least a bogey on the first three holes.

He scored a seven on the par-4 first hole and a six on the par-4 second. He then salvaged a bogey on the third hole. He was able to lock in and record seven birdies on the final 15 holes to put together a final round 69.

Griffin was 3-under par for the tournament and finished tied for 12th with Rory McIlroy and Harris English in the tournament. Scottie Scheffler won the BMW Championship with a 15-under – two strokes better than Robert Macintyre and four better than Maverick McNealy.

He explained after his round that an issue with creatine caused his chances on the first three holes to slip away. He said that he filled up his water bottle with a "snowball" of creatine and when he took a sip from the bottle he swallowed a massive chunk.
