LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Wyndham Clark's late mother always told him to "play big" and the American did just that at the U.S. Open to earn an emotional breakthrough victory on Sunday.
Having seen his three-shot lead over Rory McIlroy whittled down to one, and with two daunting par fours still ahead of him at the Los Angeles Country Club, Clark drew inspiration from his mother Lise, who died of breast cancer in 2013 at the age of 54.
