He finished the third round two shots behind 54-hole leader Si Woo Kim and suggested on Saturday that he knew it would take that kind of performance to catch him. What happened next looked as easy as an iron swing from Byron Nelson himself.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:var(--font-suisse-intl), &quot;Suisse Intl&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">On another warm and nearly wind-free afternoon north of Dallas, Clark made nine birdies and an eagle for his fourth victory on the PGA TOUR. His back-nine 28 put Clark at 30 under for his first win since the 2024 AT&amp;T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. He never shot a round higher than 66.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:var(--font-suisse-intl), &quot;Suisse Intl&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Kim (64-60-68-65) finished at 27 under for solo second, followed by Scottie Scheffler (66-63-65-65) at 25 under to finish third.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:var(--font-suisse-intl), &quot;Suisse Intl&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">\u201cIt was pretty amazing,\u201d Clark said. \u201cI just knew I had to keep birdieing.

He was sixth in Strokes Gained: Off-the-Tee. He was 11th in SG: Approach to Green, first in SG: Putting and tied for seventh in greens in regulation. He made 28 birdies, the second-most for the week at TPC Craig Ranch. No course on the TOUR has yielded more birdies this year \u2013 a startling 1,975 \u2013 and no player managed to make enough of those Sunday with the fewest errors.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:var(--font-suisse-intl), &quot;Suisse Intl&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">\u201cEverything\u2019s been kind of coming together,\u201d Clark said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:var(--font-suisse-intl), &quot;Suisse Intl&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Before Sunday, his best finish of the year was a T13 at The American Express. He played well at the Masters and the RBC Heritage, with finishes at both inside the top 25. Poor driving cost him a missed cut at the PGA Championship, but a spacious TPC Craig Ranch can accommodate a pull or a push here and there.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:var(--font-suisse-intl), &quot;Suisse Intl&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">\u201cI felt confident,\u201d Clark said. \u201cThen after the first round, I felt really good on the greens, and I said, okay, this could be a really fun, special week.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1779714370_314_image.jpg\" alt=\"Wyndham Clark\u2019s interview after winning THE CJ CUP\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;object-fit:cover\" loading=\"eager\" fetchpriority=\"high\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"chakra-text css-16ejlxd\">Wyndham Clark\u2019s interview after winning THE CJ CUP<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:var(--font-suisse-intl), &quot;Suisse Intl&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">The aura of his round resembled the third round of the 2024 tournament at Pebble Beach. There, too, Clark shot a 60.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:var(--font-suisse-intl), &quot;Suisse Intl&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">It turned out to be the winning score there as well. The final round was cancelled due to inclement weather. That makes Clark a very specific unicorn \u2013 a player who has won twice with closing rounds of 60.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:var(--font-suisse-intl), &quot;Suisse Intl&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">\u201cIt was a calm zone,\u201d Clark said. &#8220;I&#8217;ve been in the zone before. Like at Pebble, that was a crazy zone, just simply because that golf course and the putts I was making was almost like out of this world just because those greens are so difficult.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:var(--font-suisse-intl), &quot;Suisse Intl&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">On Saturday, when many caddies wore messages on the backs of their bibs about family time or sleep, Clark\u2019s wore the word \u201cUnlok.\u201d That refers to an app Clark is helping to create for better mental health and fitness. Clark said the bib message reminded him to relax and focus.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:var(--font-suisse-intl), &quot;Suisse Intl&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">\u201cHere it just almost felt like I was playing at home, and every hole was a new hole,\u201d Clark said. \u201cI didn&#8217;t worry that I just made six birdies or that I needed to make more. I just was like, all right, I have this 20-footer. I see it left edge, and I&#8217;d hit it, and it would go in. It was a different zone than I&#8217;ve been in before, that&#8217;s for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>TrendingTrending Up Articles<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:var(--font-suisse-intl), &quot;Suisse Intl&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Clark stayed there, from his first birdie on the par-4 second through the birdie-birdie finish on the final two holes. It was clear Clark could not be caught.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:var(--font-suisse-intl), &quot;Suisse Intl&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">\u201cSometimes you&#8217;ve just got to tip your cap and say, \u2018Good playing,\u2019 and 60 was going to be pretty tough to beat today,\u201d Scheffler said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:var(--font-suisse-intl), &quot;Suisse Intl&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Clark, who began the tournament 82nd on the FedExCup Points List, earned 500 points toward the season-long race.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:var(--font-suisse-intl), &quot;Suisse Intl&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">He also proved to himself that, at the age of 32, he has a lot of winning left to accomplish.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:var(--font-suisse-intl), &quot;Suisse Intl&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">\u201cNeedless to say, it feels amazing to be back in the winner\u2019s circle,\u201d he said. \u201cI feel like my game&#8217;s trending in a great direction to continue to have success through the rest of the year.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"13H AGO 4 Min Read Latest *:not(style){overflow:hidden;position:absolute;top:0px;right:0px;bottom:0px;left:0px;display:-webkit-box;display:-webkit-flex;display:-ms-flexbox;display:flex;-webkit-box-pack:center;-ms-flex-pack:center;-webkit-justify-content:center;justify-content:center;-webkit-align-items:center;-webkit-box-align:center;-ms-flex-align:center;align-items:center;width:100%;height:100%;}.css-17ygvlf>img,.css-17ygvlf>video{object-fit:cover;}.css-17ygvlf::before{height:0px;content:&#8221;&#8221;;display:block;padding-bottom:56.25%;}]]&gt; Wyndham Clark\u2019s Round 4 winning highlights from THE CJ CUP *:not(style)~*:not(style){margin-top:0.5rem;-webkit-margin-end:0px;margin-inline-end:0px;margin-bottom:0px;-webkit-margin-start:0px;margin-inline-start:0px;}]]&gt;&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":664100,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[71],"tags":[427,99],"class_list":["post-664099","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-golf","tag-golf","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/664099","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=664099"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/664099\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/664100"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=664099"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=664099"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=664099"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
