Wyndham Clark fired a final-round 60 at TPC Craig Ranch to beat Si Woo Kim and Scottie Scheffler at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson.

Wyndham Clark didn’t win the 2026 CJ Cup Byron Nelson. He hijacked it.

In a week where TPC Craig Ranch played like a birdie factory, Clark delivered the loudest round of all, closing with an 11-under 60 to finish at 30-under and beat Si Woo Kim by three shots.

It was the lowest final round by a PGA Tour winner this season and one of the nastiest Sunday charges golf has seen in years.

Clark started the final round two shots behind Kim and outside the last pairing, where Kim and Scottie Scheffler were supposed to own the spotlight. Instead, Clark turned the penultimate group into a takeover.

The fireworks started early with a 23-foot birdie on No. 2. Then came three straight birdies on Nos. 4, 5 and 6. But the real ambush happened on the back nine, where Clark shot 28 with five birdies and an eagle.

He drove the green on the short par-4 14th, made birdie, then buried a ridiculous 45-footer on No. 15 to grab the solo lead.

That was the punch Kim couldn’t answer.

Clark’s putter was absurd all week. He made 450 feet of putts, with more than one-third of that coming Sunday.

His 12-foot birdie on No. 17 gave him breathing room and marked his 13th made putt outside 10 feet for the tournament.

This was Clark’s fourth PGA Tour victory, his first since the 2024 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and his first full 72-hole win since the 2023 U.S. Open.

It also launched him from No. 82 to No. 34 in the FedEx Cup standings, putting him back into key Signature Event fields.

Kim finished second at 27-under after a monster week that included 33 birdies, one shy of the PGA Tour tournament record.

Scheffler landed third at 25-under, extending his winless streak to 10 starts despite another elite finish.

Blades Brown also made noise, finishing T14 at 18-under after turning 19 and earning special temporary PGA Tour membership.

But Sunday belonged to Clark.

He didn’t chase the lead. He detonated the leaderboard.
