I just wanted to thank whoever it is that puts these compilations together. The PGA highlights are basically just best shots compilation, with no editing to give you a feel for the battle for first place - they are not good. This manages to nicely balance both. Thank you USGA youtube folks.
I've been complaining about it for years. When bean counters make the decisions, that's what you get. Fortunately, they make exceptions for the majors.
Not having watched round 4 live, this video was the best possible way of finding out how it played out down the stretch. Best day 4 highlight video i've ever watched, thank you USGA!
Yes thank you for the proper highlights. I hope you'll continue to do that. Congrats to Clark to your maiden major win. As much as I wanted Rory to win, he didn't do enough to win this. Clark was superb with the long putts, chips, and par saves. He didn't fall apart and kept cool. Well deserved.
i played high school / junior golf against him in Colorado.... very impressed with the development of his mental game through the years cause he had the swing we all were jealous of since 14 years old
Well part of the reason was that he hit so many greens in regulation, but it was hard to get it close. So he wound up with a bunch of 30-footers and nobody is going to make a bunch of those. He hit a lot of good putts though, hard to believe that one of them didn't go in. The putts on 7 and 14 would have been nice, especially the one on 7 (the putt on 14 was very difficult), but it's otherwise hard to find where he made a mistake on the greens.
It all came down to #14: Rory- dumps a 20 handicap-level wedge from the middle of the fairway into the heavy rough, makes bogey Wyndham- hits the 3 wood of his life to 20 ft, tap-in birdie Similar to the final round of the 2022 Open, Rory hit the ball tremendously but couldn't make a putt. Clark's chipping and lag putting were phenomenal. A deserving champ
Well the kid never cracked, stayed solid even when some shots got away from him. A well played tourney and he deserves the win 100%. One comment on the coverage... would it be so difficult to have club and distance on every shot? Imagine watching football with no down and distance?
A great final round. Rickiie burned a few edges there. You never know, a couple drop, momentum shifts, and who knows. But that's golf! A deserved win for Wyndham Clark. Absolute clutch stuff. I wasn't even playing and I could feel my nerves frayed!
was a little disappointed when I woke up this morning to see mcilroy and fowler had fallen away but damn, watching these highlights, Wyndham came through. Some great clutch shots and very few errors for a Sunday at the US open for a first time winner. Hats off to him. Also... My god what a dull course for a US open haha
As 'Zinger' (Paul Azinger) said in his commentary, you HAVE to be able to lag putt, down the stretch at the US Open- so true- that's what won it for Wyndham. (not a bad up and down on 11, and a stud second shot on 14)
Great win for Clarke he played just well enough to win and had some really clutch up and downs in final round. So disappointed in Ricky Fowler, very few players had a final round score higher than him, his putter went cold and his inconsistent ball striking killed him. I could see when Fowler was swinging well he really waits and completes his backswing, but on his wayward shots he rushes his transition, which maybe doesn’t look like it compared to some players, but if you compare his good swings you can see it.
I wanted Fowler, he had 3 great days. I just read an article about how classey he was in defeat and also how positive in his progress. Get em next time.
Glad to watch the highlights. Too late in my region to stay up. Gutted for Rickie, too many mistakes. Rory should be kicking himself. Scotty also did not play well on this tough course.
They were not polite at all. Every hole the crowd was rooting for Rory, saying "go rory" every time Clark was up "booing" Clark on the Tee boxes and overall be insufferable. You must have watched a different tournament the crowd was awful.
Rory came very close again, but he just seems to lack that little extra, it's like he plays not to lose instead of playing to win. He basically gave it away with the 3 footer he missed for birdie at the easy par 5, and also the horrible approach wedge at the other par 5 and ended up making bogey.
2:00 "Skirted that last bunker..." There was no bunker anywhere in the frame, likely at least 20 - 30 yards away. Dude's shot was perfectly fine. Grief.
The course looks great, but blind shots to sloping fairways aren't going to win points with any golfer. Schefler hit good approach shots, but continually above the hole made for defensive birdie putts all day. Azinger, insufferable as usual. Finally turned the sound off.
Ricky didn't hit his putts hard enough. He kept coming up a foot short. For this I am sad. He was the sentimental favorite and once again one of the brides maids who didn't even get the flowers.
2023' US Open was the best in many tears, absolutely the best Tournament this year so far. Great to see the field loaded with LIV+PGA Players and everyone played their hearts out to the very end. Absolutely the best pay day in the history of Golf for the Players. 😏
I'm all for making the game of golf more fun and available to the general public, but they really need to do something about the yelling after every single shot. If you are there to watch golf, watch golf. No one wants you drunkenly whistling and yelling obnoxious stuff for everyone to hear on TV.
I'm the only guy who would be watching without a stupid phone in the air. I don't get it really. It's so annoying to see phones everywhere. You can always go back and watch it on youtube. Why does everyone need to record it and then post? Like oh wow look at me I was at the u s open.
I never understand why you show the winner on the thumbnail image. This video just popped up whilst watching the open a day late and ruined it for me. It’s the same on all old replays and do not see why you always show the winner. Try a question mark ?
He didn't choke. Get real. He's won 4 of these things. He did lose the tournament when he got that incredible break with a free drop, and still bogeyed. But he played well, and putted very well...the putts just barely missed one way or the other. It's pretty special to win many Majors; in fact really only Tiger and Jack are in double digits (unless you want to count stuff from when the game was really still in its infancy).
@@disorderedenthropy he had one of the best rounds that afternoon tbf….just couldn’t quite get the putter hot and Wyndham hung in scrambled brilliantly ,that’s golf…🤷🏻♂️
Yet another major slips by for Rory Macalroy …… BUT it has to be said hitting so many approach shots with 8 iron, 9 iron, wedges and the ball 30Ft from the pin on such large greens is just not good enough sadly.
@@seanblair9686 I agree, off the tee Macllory driving was superb, he put himself in great positions but rely on 30Ft birdies it’s not sustainable…… as the old saying goes, drive for show, put for money ….. the great Jack Nicholas was stated…. Winning majors is far easier than one thinks, on the last day on the leaderboard everyone normally comes back to you, and it did on this occasion….. great players normally gets the job done…. A great opportunity missed …. Look at the finishing scores, COURSE MANAGEMENT IS EVERYTHING ….
I don't get people saying that certain players choked....🤔,Rickie just didn't have his A-game on the Sunday, neither did scottie....Rory played very well all four days....just look at the stats....he putted extremely well all four days....simply nothing went in for him that's all....and Clark played well over 4 days and had a little luck on a few occasions but that's what you need in major's to get across the finish line.
Some people have no idea what choking means. They think if you didn't get the job done & win then you choked. Jean Van de Velde is what a choke really is.
good win by Clark but that 18th hole isn't/wasn't a U.S. Open caliber finishing hole. It could have been a much more exciting tourney had this been played on a different course. JMTC
Very much rooting for Rickie from the first round. It really looked like he had it going on. Very surprised he faded like that. Just a couple missed putts and there it goes.
Does anyone else not particularly care for Rory ? I feel that how he acted after the merger was childish. He made the decision to stick with the PGA and they turned their backs on him. Rory needs to stop acting like a bozo
I'm Irish and give me Shane any day. Headed the anti-LIV crowd when he should have been practicing. This is the man who changed his equipment to Nike for 20 million a year. Since then he hasn't won a major. Coincidence? I can forgive his stupidity but not his lack of class.
As long as Rory didn’t win, lol. I have nothing against him. I actually like Rory as he seems to be a genuine guy. But the golf media, in this PGA v LIV stuff, has ratcheted up their zestiness for Rory from a 3 to a 13. And if he had won, media coverage false glee would’ve been in OVERDRIVE for the next 2 weeks. I’m more happy for someone like Wyndham to win under these circumstances. And yes… I am petty. Fight me. 😆
So you think he should just have taken a couple of hundred million, and he'd be better off anyways. Probably true. Financially. But some folks, after having already made hundreds of millions, don't live for more of that in a vacuum any more. I'm glad he stood up for what he believed, but in the end you'll get your wish because the money is so huge, that even Rory will eventually make an add for Riyad Air, and likely say nothing when the next reporter falls over dead in a restaurant from poisoning. For enough money, it seems, every one of us will even sell out of whatever we claim to believe.
@@bishfrie 😆well I grew up there and that's just an urban myth. 😆Also, there are four seasons, and the city of Denver and many other populous areas of Colorado sit in the flat plains, east of the Rocky Mountain range.
Clark closed the deal in golf's biggest stage for an American against the best in the world so you've got to give him a ton of credit. Getting that last 60 foot putt on 18 up there to pretty much tap in range was excellent. It will be interesting to see if this will propel him to taking the next step forward and consistently competing for wins. He's played in 137 events and only has 16 top 10s and one other win.
I just wanted to thank whoever it is that puts these compilations together. The PGA highlights are basically just best shots compilation, with no editing to give you a feel for the battle for first place - they are not good. This manages to nicely balance both. Thank you USGA youtube folks.
Agreed! Amazing work, especially for us in the UK when it was on too late to watch!
PGA of America needs to sell to Saudi Arabia. PGA of SA wouldn’t let us down.
I've been complaining about it for years. When bean counters make the decisions, that's what you get. Fortunately, they make exceptions for the majors.
You read my mind. The PGA tour is a municipal course compared to Pebble beach with their highlights
@@thomasmyers2288 that must suck. You really didn't miss much. But I feel you. Great win though
UK golf fans thank you for these highlights!
Thank you so much for showing the back 9 of the tournament. I wasn't able to watch it live. Great highlights! 🙏🏻

Congrats, Wyndham. I'm gutted for Rickie. Hope to see him continue to do well and get another win soon.
Congratulations Clark 🎉
That was genuinly so impressive from someone who's never been in that position before with Rory chasing him, fair play, not many have that in them 💪
its not really all that hard, its just a game
I was hoping for fowler or rory to lift the trophy but man Wyndham had absolute nerves of steel holding the score together
Nice compilation, but what is wrong with the audio?
Mcilroy reminds me of Lee Westwood in that time after time when he's in contention on the last day he doesn't hole a single significant putt.
Well part of the reason was that he hit so many greens in regulation, but it was hard to get it close. So he wound up with a bunch of 30-footers and nobody is going to make a bunch of those. He hit a lot of good putts though, hard to believe that one of them didn't go in. The putts on 7 and 14 would have been nice, especially the one on 7 (the putt on 14 was very difficult), but it's otherwise hard to find where he made a mistake on the greens.
Well played Sir!! Congratulations Mr Clark. Great Highlights , thank you for that.
Well done Wyndham, what a moment! The stuff of dreams 👏
One of the great shots was his uphill against the grain pitch at hole 11. Fantastic, he withheld the pressure.
Awesome to see a no-name win the Open. Congrats Wyndham Clark! Hope to see him up on the leaderboards again soon.
Lol a no name. Maybe if you never watch golf.
Hardly a no-name, he just won the Wells Fargo Championship this year.
@@gtplumbing2004 this is his 2nd tour win. Calm your tits. He’s not a household name.

Looks and sounds like such a kind guy! Very happy for him!!
Well done on the highlights, really good job
I am so grateful my dad is 87 hospital 3 weeks and you know he loves his golf it is a gentleman’s game ❤️❤️
Is the long-established courtesy of players acknowledging the spectator's applause going out of fashion?
It all came down to #14:
Rory- dumps a 20 handicap-level wedge from the middle of the fairway into the heavy rough, makes bogey
Wyndham- hits the 3 wood of his life to 20 ft, tap-in birdie
Similar to the final round of the 2022 Open, Rory hit the ball tremendously but couldn't make a putt. Clark's chipping and lag putting were phenomenal. A deserving champ
100x better than PGA editing. Addicting to watch
Congratulations Clack you played well. just imagine sacrifice lamb ( Rory) won it. we won't able to hear the end of it.
Denver is a city of champions this year!
Well the kid never cracked, stayed solid even when some shots got away from him. A well played tourney and he deserves the win 100%.
One comment on the coverage... would it be so difficult to have club and distance on every shot? Imagine watching football with no down and distance?
how about actual distance in stead of their fabricated distance
I really wish the USGA didn't spoil it with thumbnail. But I'm still appreciative though that I can watch this.
Congrats , well deserved :)
A great final round. Rickiie burned a few edges there. You never know, a couple drop, momentum shifts, and who knows. But that's golf! A deserved win for Wyndham Clark. Absolute clutch stuff. I wasn't even playing and I could feel my nerves frayed!
Every time some idiot yells "get in the hole" God kills another kitten. Sad.
7:09 what a pitch
was a little disappointed when I woke up this morning to see mcilroy and fowler had fallen away but damn, watching these highlights, Wyndham came through. Some great clutch shots and very few errors for a Sunday at the US open for a first time winner. Hats off to him. Also... My god what a dull course for a US open haha
Congrats to Wyndham. I was hoping Rickie would go wire to wire but Wyndham was able to gut it out.
As 'Zinger' (Paul Azinger) said in his commentary, you HAVE to be able to lag putt, down the stretch at the US Open- so true- that's what won it for Wyndham. (not a bad up and down on 11, and a stud second shot on 14)

I had such an amazing time these past 4 days at LACC with friends and family. Truly a beautiful course and one of the better US Opens.
Congrats to Wyndham. I felt so bad for Rickie though what a huge disappointment. I was hoping Rory could've gotten it done but it wasn't his day.
Never heard of this guy...but congratulations to you
I wanted Fowler, he had 3 great days. I just read an article about how classey he was in defeat and also how positive in his progress. Get em next time.
I didn’t want him to win but he earned every bit of that 4th round.
I really wanted Rickie to win, tough round today tho.
Congratulations! I'm sure you put a smile on your mom's face.
Thank you
odd that in this day and age they dont show more info, like a hole layout, hole par etc.
Let's have another parade Denver!
Congratulations Clark
Glad to watch the highlights. Too late in my region to stay up. Gutted for Rickie, too many mistakes. Rory should be kicking himself. Scotty also did not play well on this tough course.
Is that a helicopter ruining the audio or what is that infuriating motor sound in every shot?
why not show the whole broadcast? highlights don't really tell the story. maybe MBS won't let them.
if was usga id be embarrassed, what a drag that was. Well done clarke
Hung tough,fair play to him…👊🏻
The atmosphere reminded me of when Wimbledon used to be club members only. Largely quiet and polite.
They were not polite at all. Every hole the crowd was rooting for Rory, saying "go rory" every time Clark was up "booing" Clark on the Tee boxes and overall be insufferable. You must have watched a different tournament the crowd was awful.

A few years late but it sounds even better to me if you also play the G# on the high E string.
GOOD FOR YOU CLARK
Never seen a major champion win on a Tee shot on the last hole that should have been OB
Haven't seen this many spike marks in forever. Didn't realize how many of these guys were still wearing them.

He doesn’t have the killer instinct.

Every year I watch waiting for mclroy to win and every year it doesn’t happen😢

Ricky didn't hit his putts hard enough. He kept coming up a foot short. For this I am sad. He was the sentimental favorite and once again one of the brides maids who didn't even get the flowers.
bs drop that was given to rory. very convenient they said it was plugged. bogey was karma for taking that drop.
I'm truly bummed that my boy Rickie choked again
He always chokes in the final round
Hole #11 - 295 yard par 3???
Next year will be your time Rory and Ricky
Looks like Rory can't make birdies on sundays anymore...
