Wyndham Clark, a former University of Oregon standout, wins his second U.S. Open championship after leading into the final round and holding off the field at Shinnecock Hills. Multiple outlets report that Clark enters the last day with a sizable advantage—about a six-stroke lead—before facing pressure as his final-round play becomes tighter than his opening position suggested. CBS News and others say he ultimately wins by a one-shot margin. Yahoo Sports notes that Clark wins for the second time in four years, including his earlier U.S. Open title in 2023, and that he responds after a difficult stretch during the front nine. Reports also describe him finishing with a score of 3-over-par 73 to seal the victory. The Oregonian highlights that, despite his championship, Clark does not receive a warm reception from parts of the New York crowd during the final stretch. Overall coverage describes a tournament that pivots from a strong position into a narrow finish, with Clark making the putts needed to secure the win.
