Major winner 'very sorry' for damaging Oakmont lockers
Wyndham Clark has delivered an apology for damaging Oakmont Country Club lockers in anger last week at the US Open. Clark missed the cut at the third major championship of the season, going 74-74 (eight over par) through two rounds. On Saturday, social media posts from golf podcaster Todd "Tron Carter" Schuster of "No Laying Up" showed photos he obtained from the Oakmont locker room. Two of the lockers' doors were seriously damaged, with Schuster connecting it to Clark. Oakmont officials later confirmed Clark's locker had been damaged. Clark was asked about the incident Thursday at the Travelers Championship after he opened with a six-under 64. "Yeah, I mean, I've had a lot of highs and lows in my career, especially this year some lows," Clark said. "I made a mistake that I deeply regret. I'm very sorry for what happened." "But I'd also like to move on, not only for myself but for Oakmont, for the USGA, and kind of focus on the rest of this year and things that come up. "I still want to try to make the Ryder Cup team. I still am on the outside looking in for the FedEx Cup. So I'm starting to move on and focus on those things." Clark did not comment further on the matter. It was not known whether he had apologised directly to Oakmont. It was the second straight major where Clark, the 2023 US Open champion, had to apologise for aggressive behaviour. At the PGA Championship in May, following a poor drive, Clark threw his driver toward the back of the tee box. It crashed into signage with a volunteer standing mere feet away, and the head of the club snapped off.

Wyndham Clark tantrum reportedly behind U.S. Open locker room damage
Wyndham Clark tantrum reportedly behind U.S. Open locker room damage 🚨🥾🚪 #NEW: Wyndham Clark allegedly damaged several lockers in the change room at Oakmont Country Club following a missed cut, per @TronCarterNLU. Additionally, Clark recently destroyed a T-mobile sign at the PGA Championship not long ago. Is this behaviour acceptable? — NUCLR GOLF (@NUCLRGOLF) June 15, 2025 2023 U.S. Open champion Wyndham Clark missed the cut at this year's tournament, succumbing to the rough conditions of Oakmont Country Club like many others this weekend. Unlike others, Clark apparently didn't handle the loss very well. That's according to images of a couple damaged lockers in the Oakmont locker room and a report from No Laying Up's Tron Carter confirming that Clark was behind the damage. If true, this would be the latest blow up from Clark in what's possibly becoming a pattern after he tossed his club into some signage after a bad drive at last month's PGA Championship -- something he later apologized for. Clark shot 8-over at Oakmont, bowing out Friday one stroke short of the cut.
