Ben Griffin put an exclamation point on his breakout season by shooting a final-round, 9-under-par 63 to secure his third win of 2025 at the World Wide Technology Championship on Sunday in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.

Griffin was consistent all week but started the day two shots back of South Africa's Garrick Higgo. Griffin rolled in five birdies in a row at Nos. 8-12 to overtake Higgo and Carson Young for the lead at 27 under par.

He added two birdies coming home and finished with 10 birdies and a single bogey on his card in order to reach 29-under-par 259 at El Cardonal Golf Course. That was enough for a two-shot win over Sami Valimaki of Finland (64 Sunday) and Chad Ramey (65).

Higgo shot a 68 and faded to a T4 finish alongside Trevor Cone (66).

Griffin, 29, won the Zurich Classic of New Orleans (with teammate Andrew Novak) and the Charles Schwab Challenge in the spring. He vaulted into the top 15 in the world rankings, qualified for the Tour Championship for the first time and was a captain's pick for the U.S. Ryder Cup team.

Ramey and Valimaki were outside the top 100 in the FedEx Cup Fall standings entering this tournament, and the top 100 players at the end of the fall secure full PGA Tour status for next season. Ramey vaulted from No. 123 to No. 89 and Valimaki from No. 103 to No. 76 with two tournaments to go.
