He marked a seven on the first hole in 4 and a six on the second par-4. He then recovered a bogey on the third hole. He was able to lock himself and record seven birdies on the last 15 holes to assemble a last round 69.

Griffin was 3 under the tournament and ended equally in the 12th row with Rory McILroy and Harris English in the tournament. Scottie Scheffler won the BMW championship with a 15 -sub -shots better than Robert Macintyre and four best than Maverick McNealy.

He explained after his turn that a problem with creatine had caused his chances on the first three holes. He said he had filled his bottle with a creatine “snowball” and when he sipped the bottle, he swallowed a massive piece.

“I have never overdose about creatine before, but I think I did it right now because I didn’t really drink water after that,” said Griffin, via Golf.com. “I just inhaled a snowball. So I started to become super trembling. I never felt like that before and I felt like I had tremors.

“I have four shots 1 and out of 2 I like to panic and I did not know what to do. As I hit it so far from the limits.”

Griffin has credited his shopping cart, Adam Ritthamel, to have helped him cross the intense problem. “”
