Clark won the golf US Open for the second time on Long Island

American golfer Wyndham Clark won the US Open on Sunday at the Shinnecock Hills club on Long Island in the state of New York. In the final round he shot three strokes over par and lost most of his lead, but he held on to the win and secured his second title at this major after his triumph in 2023. sport.cz ↗

Clark finished the tournament with a score of four strokes under par. Sam Burns finished one stroke behind him, and Tom Kim was three strokes back. The final round was noticeably harder for him than the previous part of the tournament, as on Sunday he struggled to add birdies and had to withstand the pressure from his rivals as well as the worsening course of his own round. idnes.cz ↗

Clark built the foundation for his victory already in the first half of the tournament. After two rounds he was at a score of seven strokes under par and led by four shots. In the demanding conditions, by contrast, Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler fell further behind, while German golfer Matti Schmid failed to make the cut for the weekend part of the tournament. sport.cz ↗

Clark's victory confirms his standing among players who are able to handle the toughest major conditions. Shinnecock Hills also showed that even a substantial lead can quickly vanish at the US Open if, in the final round, pressure, wind, and minimal scoring opportunities all come together. El Pais ↗
