Clark wins 2nd US Open title. Yamashita takes LPGA event in playoff

Clark became the first wire-to-wire U.S. Open winner since 2014, while Yamashita earned her third LPGA Tour victory in a playoff.

  • On Sunday, Wyndham Clark captured his second U.S. Open title at Shinnecock Hills, finishing at 4-under 276 to hold off Sam Burns by one shot.
  • Clark entered the final round six shots ahead, but his lead dwindled to one stroke as the gallery supported Scottie Scheffler's bid for a career Grand Slam.
  • Separately, Miyu Yamashita won the Meijer LPGA Classic on Sunday in a playoff against Lottie Woad, shooting an 8-under 64 to reach 17-under 271 at Blythefield Country Club.
  • Yamashita birdied the 18th hole in regulation and the playoff to clinch her third LPGA Tour victory, while Woad missed a 3-foot par putt and a 10-foot comebacker.
  • The major KPMG Women's PGA Championship begins Thursday at Hazeltine in Minnesota, marking the next significant event on the professional golf calendar.
