Wyndham Clark captured the U.S. Open title at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club on Long Island despite vocal crowd opposition during the final round. The two-time champion finished ahead of the field after navigating challenging conditions and fan reactions alongside playing partner Scottie Scheffler.
Wyndham Clark held a six-shot lead after the third round of the 2026 U.S. Open but said a thin crowd at Shinnecock Hills left the atmosphere flat and hurt his focus. He finished his round after 8 p.m. ET on Saturday with two late bogeys. Clark said he hopes more spectators appear for Sunday’s final round.
