The CJ Cup Byron Nelson: Wyndham Clark comes from behind to beat Si Woo Kim and Scottie Scheffler to win fourth PGA Tour event

Wyndham Clark came from two shots behind to end a two-year wait to win a PGA Tour event at The CJ Cup Byron Nelson on Sunday, outlasting both Si Woo Kim and defending champion Scottie Scheffler in a three-way race for the title.

The victory ends what's been a difficult start to the season for Clark, who has failed to make a top-10 finish on the PGA Tour since December, with the 2023 US Open champion coming into this week after missing the cut at the PGA Championship.

Clark posted scores of 66, 63 and 65 in his opening three rounds before shooting an astonishing bogey-free 60 on his final day at TPC Craig Ranch, to end his week at 30-under par, three shots clear of Kim and five clear of world No 1 Scheffler in third.

The last time Clark won on the PGA Tour was at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am in 2024, where he also shot a final round of 60.

"It's been a pretty heavy fall since being... I was even up to third in the world at some point in 2024," Clark said. "It's frustrating, but that's golf. I went through a tough spot, not swinging it good, not feeling comfortable with a lot of things, and I did a lot of work this off-season working on my golf swing.

"Then I started hitting it better, but wasn't making the putts. Then, finally, I landed on a great putter, and then everything's been kind of coming together.

"Needless to say, it feels amazing to be back in the winner's circle. I feel like my game's trending in a great direction to continue to have success through the rest of the year."

While it was an astonishing score, Clark was unable to outdo Scheffler's winning score of 31 under in 2025.

"It's tough to make that many birdies, and sometimes your mind wanders and gets ahead of itself, and sometimes you think some negative thoughts of, 'am I going to miss one now?'" Clark said.

"You have to bring yourself back to the present, and say, 'no, you know I'm playing good golf, stick to my process and keep doing what I'm doing and good things are going to continue to happen'."

The American pair began the day tied for second at 19 under, and Clark went on the charge early, going four-under par through his first six holes, making birdies on the second, fourth, fifth and sixth. Kim, meanwhile, kept up pace, making birdies on his first six holes, but gave Clark an advantage on the par-four eighth, three-putting for a bogey.

Clark made the turn first, posting a birdie on the 11th before taking the outright lead on the 12th. He fired a beautiful 245-yard long iron to within 15 feet of the hole and drained the resulting putt to make an eagle.
