Wyndham Clark won the US Open. Meteor or start of a successful career?

The American won the first major of his career at the North Course Los Angeles Country Club ahead of Rory McIlroy by a single stroke and behind the world number one, Scottie Scheffler

A very large pool of players, without exception, a new field and 122 editions behind them, the curiosity to understand who would have won after the agreement between the Saudis and the Pga Tour, above all a new generation of young players ready for battle. It was understood from the first lap that the game was going to get tough. Twenty minutes apart, Rickie Fowler and Xander Schauffele both shut down on 62 hits, one shy of Johnny Miller’s 63 fifty years ago in Oakmont. A lap that remains legendary and allowed him to beat Tom Weiskopf, Jack Nicklaus, Lee Trevino and against him the then unbeatable Arnold Palmer, climb 25 positions in the last lap and win one US Open which for some would have justified the portrait of Johnny Miller on Mount Rushmore.
