By IANS News August 02, 2026 • 16:54 PM View: 233

Detroit Golf Club: After two winless years, Davis Riley positioned himself well to win on the PGA TOUR and to earn a bid into the playoffs. Riley shot a 7-under 63 to reach 15 and took a one-shot lead at Detroit Golf Club.

The relatively easy course will give a lot of players on the tightly packed leaderboard a chance to win the Rocket Classic.

Riley closed with consecutive birdies, making a 54-foot putt at No. 17 and a 10-footer at 18 to pull into a first-place tie with Michael Brennan.
