Summary
Wyndham Clark holds a six-shot U.S. Open lead heading into the final round at Shinnecock Hills after a gutsy, even-par 70 that included a jaw-dropping eagle on the 16th with a 3-wood from 275 yards. Scottie Scheffler, six shots back and chasing his 30th birthday on Father’s Day, is firing on all cylinders with a strong back nine and a shot at the career Grand Slam. The brutal course has kept most players out of the red, and Clark’s clutch par saves have been key — though he missed a short putt on the final hole. With no one ever losing such a massive lead in a U.S. Open, the pressure is sky-high, and contenders like Schauffele and Mitchell admit Clark’s likely winner if he stays steady. Scheffler, meanwhile, is laser-focused on his game, knowing he’ll need flawless execution to catch the leader — setting the stage for one of the most dramatic finals in golf history.
