Weather was not a major factor for once, and several golfers put in top-notch performances as they concluded another weekend on tour.
Here's who won and how everyone performed at the Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas.

While the leader heading into the final round did have a bit of a cushion, most other placements were up for grabs. In second was Scottie Scheffler, but he was only four strokes ahead of 18th place. That congestion continued in the final around.
Scheffler actually struggled on the final round, and others ended up tied with him or passed him on the final leaderboard for the Charles Schwab Challenge. After breaking his hot streak with a T8 at the PGA Championship, he finished tied for second.
It was a solid if unspectacular weekend for several golfers, including Adam Scott, Collin Morikawa, Gary Woodland, and Tony Finau. They all shot pretty well over four rounds while not truly competing for the trophy.
This was not a Signature Event on the PGA Tour, so there was a cut. The cut ended up being two over par after the second round, which meant that several golfers ended up going home early.
Those include Ryo Hisatsune, Justin Suh, Eric Cole, Taylor Moore, Luke List, J.J. Spaun, Max Homa, and Nicolai Hojgaard. There were three who withdrew: Grayson Murray, Alex Smalley, and Adam Schenk.
Murray withdrew citing an illness after a 68 through 16 holes, and died the following day. His death was revealed as a suicide by his family on Sunday morning.
