Tommy Fleetwood became the first player in U.S. Open history to finish with a 63 or better in two rounds on his way to tying for fifth in the tournament.
Wyndham Clark captured his first major golf title, finishing one stroke ahead of Rory McIlroy to win the 2023 U.S. Open at Los Angeles Country Club.. He finished tied for fifth overall, five shots behind the winner, Wyndham Clark. Fleetwood also tied the lowest U.S. Open final-round score, matching his feat at Shinnecock Hills in 2018 and Johnny Miller’s round at Oakmont in 1973.“I was enjoying it and trusting my game,” he said. “I never thought too far ahead.
The 497-yard hole played the fourth hardest for the week, averaging 4.3 strokes per golfer; on Sunday, it was the second toughest, averaging 4.42, according to Elias.Fred Perpall, the first Black USGA president, says the key to improving golf’s diversity is unlocking access to play at all levels. Johnson’s second-hole problems matched the highest per-hole score by any player at the event: Eric Cole was six over on No. 5, Hideki Matsuyama six over on No. 11 and Cameron Young six over on No. 13. Johnson was six over on a hole at one other major: No. 10 at the 2009 Open Championship at Turnberry.“I hit a lot of great shots, gave myself lots of opportunities for birdie,” he said. “Just didn’t hole enough putts.”Collin Morikawa didn’t have the U.S.
“Oh, it was amazing,” said Morikawa, who finished tied with Patrick Cantlay, formerly of Long Beach, for 14th, both eight shots behind Clark. Morikawa said LACC’s North Course “played how I thought it was going to play,” although for a U.S. Open, “maybe the easy holes are a little too easy out here, and that’s weird to say, but maybe [the] fairways need to be brought in a little bit.”Wyndham Clark holds the U.S. Open championship trophy after winning at the Los Angeles Country Club on June 18. Wyndham Clark celebrates immediately after winning the U.S. Open at the Los Angeles Country Club on June 18.
