The Charles Schwab Challenge at Colonial Country Club has the longest streak on the PGA TOUR without a first-time winner, with Sergio Garcia being the last in 2001. Bettors should consider this trend and focus on experienced players rather than first-time hopefuls. Weather forecasts suggest wind could favor early-late tee times. Notable players to watch include Taylor Moore, Keegan Bradley, and Keith Mitchell.
Michael Block, a 46-year-old teaching pro, hit an incredible escape from a bridge during the first round of the Charles Schwab Challenge in Texas, but finished the round in last place at +11. Block had a level-headed outlook, saying it was just one of those days of golf. Despite the poor performance, any more moments in the sun are a nice sight for Block, who qualified for last week's tournament through a qualifier for club professionals and made his first major cut 16 years after his first appearance.
The Charles Schwab Challenge will take place at the Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas, with 120 competitors, including PGA Professional Michael Block, who received a sponsor exemption. The course is a par 70, with bermuda grass from tee to green and bentgrass putting surfaces.

Sam Burns won the 2022 tournament with a final-round average of 72.275 in winds that gusted to more than 30 mph.
