Wyndham Clark is a two-time U.S. Open champion.

Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme recap the final round from Shinnecock Hills, where Clark survived a chaotic Sunday, a charging Sam Burns, a final pairing with Scottie Scheffler, and a hostile New York crowd to claim his second major championship.

Smylie was inside the ropes with the final group all day and breaks down the shots that decided the championship: Scottie’s slow start, Wyndham’s short-game saves, the massive birdie at 16, Sam Burns’ near-misses on 17 and 18, and how Shinnecock Hills played across four demanding rounds.

The guys also debate the course setup, fan behavior toward Wyndham Clark, what this win means for his legacy, the leaderboard names who made a jump, and Rory McIlroy skipping the Travelers.
