Wyndham Clark wins the BMW Championship on Sunday, finishing with three straight birdies after his five-shot lead shrinks earlier in the round. After posting a 65 in the third round to build momentum, Clark’s final stretch turns the contest as he secures his third victory of the season.
The outlets also describe tension around the way play is handled during the final round. Yahoo Sports reports Clark suggests he was “screwed” during his third round and says he becomes embroiled in a rule controversy on his way to the win. The Athletic focuses more on the scoring and the decisive finish, noting that Clark’s lead disappears around the 10th hole before he birdies his final three holes to take the title. Despite the differing emphasis, all accounts agree on Clark’s late scoring surge and that the championship outcome comes down to his closing holes.
