Wyndham Clark holds off McIlroy and Cantlay to capture BMW Championship for 3rd win this year
ST. LOUIS (AP) — Wyndham Clark pulled off a remarkable victory at the BMW Championship, overcoming a significant lead in the final round and securing his third win of the year. The St. Louis-based golfer, who has a history of losing big leads in the final round, showcased his resilience by finishing with an even-par 70 and closing with a three-shot lead at Bellerive.
Clark's success places him firmly in the conversation for PGA Tour Player of the Year, as he achieved this milestone alongside a major championship and a FedEx Cup playoff event. Despite facing immense pressure and a gallery favoring his opponent Rory McIlroy, Clark remained composed and secured his third victory this season, finishing at 17-under 263.
