Wyndham Clark has expressed his gratitude towards Ted Scott over the kindness he showed him after the final round of the US Open last Sunday.
It is fair to say that few at Shinnecock Hills were pulling for Clark to win the third major of the year. There were a number of reasons why those outside the ropes were keen for someone else to get their hands on the trophy.
Clark is not a particularly popular figure. He had also opened up a commanding lead with 18 holes to play, with Clark at least six shots clear of the chasing pack.
Meanwhile, Scottie Scheffler was alongside Clark in the final group. It was the world number one’s first opportunity to complete the Career Grand Slam.
Ultimately, it was not Scheffler’s day. The 30-year-old struggled to build any momentum throughout the round, rarely looking like he was going to be able to put real pressure on Clark.
