Fans on social media have reacted to Davis Riley winning his second PGA Tour title at the 2024 Charles Schwab Challenge. The 27-year-old, who started the final round with a four-stroke lead, finished five-stokes in the lead with a score of under 14 in Texas.
Riley shot 70 in the final round, while Scheffler carded a round of 71, resulting in the former Masters winner taking the second spot in a tie with Keegan Bradley. It was an incredible win for Riley, especially over Scheffler, who has already won four events this season and has been in incredible form.
