At this time last year Wyndham Clark was getting himself banned from one of the most prestigious golf courses in the United States.
After a terrible showing at the U.S. Open in 2025, Clark damaged the locker room at Oakmont Country Club. Fast forward a year later and Clark took on the underdog role, defeating the likes of Scottie Scheffler and Sam Burns to win his second U.S. Open title.
"At that moment, I just felt a lot of my career, world ranking, reputation, everything just dwindling. That's a terrible feeling," Clark said of the incident at Oakmont. "I would say at that moment I definitely didn't think I'd be here this year doing this, but I did a lot of work in the offseason on my golf swing, on the things I needed to do. I started hitting it better and started seeing the results, then I started gaining my confidence."

After claiming his second major title, Clark was asked if he would be opening "some grape" – an ode to what he said following his win at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson earlier in the year. He confirmed after the round that he would, in fact, be consuming "some grape" and the morning after doubled down.
"Can confirm, grape was opened last night," Clark said on Monday afternoon.
Clark claimed his victory with a one-shot win over Sam Burns.
