While the driver of the No. 19 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota dominated the race by leading 309 of 367 laps, it took holding off a fierce charge from Tyler Reddick and Erik Jones in the closing laps to pull off the win.
Briscoe would hold off Reddick by 0.408 seconds, and as a result, he took his second consecutive win in the Southern 500 at Darlington. With the win, Briscoe will move into the Round of 12 of the Playoffs.
It was a mixed night for Playoff contenders, but no Playoff driver had a worse outing than Josh Berry, who finished 38th. Berry came into the race with high hopes, but they were dashed as he crashed on the opening lap of the race.
