Wyndham Clark won the first major of his career on Sunday with a victory at the U.S. Open. His bank account is also looking a little bit better.
captured the first major championship of his career Sunday when he held off Rory McIlroy to win the U.S. Open at the Los Angeles Country Club.
Clark had only made about $11.5 million for his career when he entered the tournament. He also only had one win on his resume on the PGA Tour. It came in May when he won the Wells Fargo Championship. Only up one stroke on the 18th, Clark had a decent approach on his tee shot. He made the green on his second, and on his third, he got within a few feet of the cup. He would save par and start the celebrations.
McIlroy was on Clark’s tail the entire fourth round, but a crucial shot on 14th gave Clark some distance. McIlroy hit a shot into the rough part of the bunker and was given a free drop. He had an opportunity to salvage par but missed a putt and dropped two strokes behind Clark. It was McIlroy’s first bogey.
