McKINNEY, Texas (AP) — Wyndham Clark was 7 under over his final eight holes Sunday and closed with an 11-under 60 to overtake Si Woo Kim and win the CJ Cup Byron Nelson for his first PGA Tour win in two years.
Clark’s last victory was the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am in 2024, where he also shot 60 in the third and final round in a tournament cut short by weather.
Kim started the final round with a two-shot lead, closed with a 65 and finished three shots behind. Defending champion Scottie Scheffler started two shots behind and never got any closer. He shot 65 and finished third, five shots behind.
Clark finished at 30-under 254. The was one shot shy of the PGA Tour’s 72-hole scoring record last matched by Scheffler a year ago at TPC Craig Ranch, which went through more than $20 million in renovations to provide a more challenging course.
European tour
ANTWERP, Belgium (AP) — Richard Sterne of South Africa ended 13 years without a European tour victory when he closed with a 5-under 66 to overcome a five-shot deficit Sunday and win the Soudal Open.
Sterne was still four shots behind Zander Lombard when he holed a 6-foot birdie putt on the 16th as Lombard dropped a shot at the 13th. Sterne followed with a 3-wood to 4 feet on the par-5 17th that set up a short eagle putt. He took the lead when Lombard made double bogey.
No one could catch Sterne the rest of the day, and he finished at 18-under 266 to win by two shots over six players — Jacob Skov Olesen, Jorge Campillo, Kota Kaneko, Victor Perez, Marcus Armitage and Marcus Kinhult.
Sterne’s previous victory on the European tour was the 2013 Joburg Open.
