Save $40 on the golf balls Ben Griffin used to win the Charles Schwab Challenge

Tom's Guide26-05-2025

The Charles Schwab Challenge has wrapped up, and Ben Griffin took home the big win.
I actually got to play a hole with Ben Griffin at an event a couple of months ago, and now he's winning on the PGA Tour. Is there a connection there? Of course not, but I just wanted a chance to say I got to play with him, and this seemed as good a time as any.
Anyway, back to why you're here: you can get a 48-pack of the MaxFli Tour X golf balls for $119 at Golf Galaxy; the same balls Griffin used to win this weekend's PGA Tour event. They won't help you win on the PGA Tour because you're not Ben Griffin, but they're an incredible golf ball at $119 for four dozen ($30/ dozen). They usually sell for $39/dozen. (For more deals, check out our Memorial Day sales live blog).
The MaxFli Tour X is a great ball that rivals far more expensive models like the Titleist Pro V1X and TaylorMade TP5x. This model, which Ben Griffin uses, offers high flight and high spin, perfect for the golfer who wants it all. If you're like me and you want a lower flight, you can get the same deal on the MaxFli Tour S (the ones I use) or MaxFli Tour golf balls.
I first wrote about the new MaxFli golf balls a few weeks ago while covering the company's return to golf clubs. After trying all three models, I found the Tour S worked best for my lower skill game, but one of the three Tour models will work for any player, including someone as skilled as Ben Griffin on the PGA Tour.
If you're sick of spending nearly $60 on a dozen golf balls, the MaxFli Tour X, Tour S or Tour are the perfect alternative. In my experience, performance and durability are right up there with more expensive balls, which is all you can ask for.
The biggest thing is making sure you choose the right ball for your game.
Tour X offers the highest flights and the most spin on long irons around the green.
The Tour S offers the lowest flight and least spin on long irons while offering grip on the greens.
The base Tour offers mid-height ball flight and mid-spin on long iron shots. Like the other two models, it's designed to provide lots of spin and stopping power on chips around the green.
Whatever ball you choose, you can't beat $30 a dozen for a tour-level golf ball (with a proven track record of tour wins recorded quickly).

Rory McIlroy has major ‘concerns' as new driver leads to shocking early exit from Canadian Open

Rory McIlroy added something big to his resume, but not in any desirable way. On Friday at the RBC Canadian Open, the Masters champion suffered an early exit from the tournament after having his second-highest score to par in any PGA Tour round of his career, missing the cut by 12. He shot 8-over 78, and his biggest troubles came in a messy fifth hole with a concerning quadruple bogey 8. 4 Rory McIlroy of Northern Ireland plays his shot from the 18th tee during the second round of the RBC Canadian Open 2025 at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley on June 06, 2025 in Caledon, Ontario. Getty Images It marked McIlroy's highest score since shooting another 78 in the first round of the British Open last year. He had a double bogey on hole 11, along with four bogeys and two birdies. He also had a double bogey on No. 11, four bogeys and two birdies on Friday. It ranked as McIlroy's highest score in any non-major PGA Tour round. 'Of course it concerns me,' McIlroy said, per ESPN. 'You don't want to shoot high scores like the one I did today. Still, I felt like I came here obviously with a new driver thinking that that sort of was going to be good and solve some of the problems off the tee, but it didn't.' Friday marked the fifth time in McIlroy's career that he has carded an 8-over round, trailing only the 10-over 80 he shot in the opening round of the 2018 U.S. Open. 4 Rory McIlroy hit his approach shot from the rough on the fifth hole during the second round of the Canadian Open golf tournament in Caledon, Ontario, Friday, June 6, 2025. AP McIlroy, at 9-over, was 21 strokes behind Cameron Champ, who entered Saturday with a two-stroke lead in the final event ahead of the U.S. Open. The reigning Masters champion isn't involved in weekend play in a non-major tour for the first time since the 2023 Players Championship. 4 Cameron Champ hits his tee shot at the 12th hole during the first round of the RBC Canadian Open golf tournament. Dan Hamilton-Imagn Images 'Obviously, going to Oakmont next week, what you need to do more than anything else there is hit fairways,' McIlroy said. 'Still sort of searching for the sort of missing piece off the tee.' McIlroy has previously won the Canadian Open twice — in 2019 and 2022. 4 Rory McIlroy said he had issues with his new driver. Getty Images Champ was at 12 under and played the first 36 holes without a bogey. 'It's firmed up a little bit, but fairly similar to yesterday,' Champ said. 'The fairways I feel like were firming up a little bit. The greens slightly, but pretty close to how they were yesterday.'

There are 18 contenders at RBC Canadian Open who need to win Sunday to get into U.S. Open The U.S. Open is just about filled up with six available spots still to go. The winner of the 2025 RBC Canadian Open, if he's not already in the field for Oakmont, earns at least Thursday and Friday tee times at the national championship next week. The Canadian Open is the final PGA Tour event before the U.S. Open, the final tune-up for those in, the final hope for those not. Golfers in contention at RBC Canadian Open who need to win to get into U.S. Open There are 29 golfers inside the top 20 (more specifically, there are 29 golfers tied for 18th or better after 36 holes in Toronto). Of those 29, there are 18 who are not in the U.S. Open field. Everyone tied for 18th or better is no more than six shots off the lead with half the tournament still to go. Neither of the top two so far in Toronto are in the Oakmont field. Pos. Name Score U.S. Open: In or out 1 Cameron Champ -12 Out 2 Andrew Putnam -10 Out T3 Thorbjorn Olesen -9 In T3 Richard Lee -9 Out T3 Nick Taylor -9 In T3 Victor Perez -9 In T7 Ryan Fox -8 Out T7 Jake Knapp -8 Out T7 Shane Lowry -8 In T7 Cristobal Del Solar -8 Out T7 Sam Burns -8 In T7 Matteo Manassero -8 Out T13 Danny Willett -7 Out T13 Rasmus Hojgaard -7 In T13 Matt McCarty -7 In T13 John Pak -7 Out T13 Taylor Pendrith -7 In T18 Cameron Young -6 In T18 Kevin Yu -6 Out T18 Peter Malnati -6 Out T18 David Skinns -6 Out T18 Trey Mullinax -6 Out T18 Jesper Svensson -6 Out T18 Beau Hossler -6 Out T18 Lee Hodges -6 Out T18 Mackenzie Hughes -6 In T18 Keith Mitchell -6 Out T18 Byeong Hun An -6 In T18 Jackson Suber -6 Out So it's pretty simple for those golfers: win and you're in.
