U.S. Open: Players Defend Wyndham Clark’s Locker Room Destruction
Voice is AI-generated. Inconsistencies may occur.
So much has been made this week of Oakmont Country Club’s carnage created for players at the 2025 U.S. Open. More players finished worse than 20-over par than are in red figures.
Just think about that.
The cut line landed at +7, with several stars falling below including defending champion Bryson DeChambeau. But so too did the 2023 U.S. Open winner, Wyndham Clark.
Clark bogeyed his 36th and final hole to miss the cut by a single stroke. Afterward, he allegedly took out his frustration on the members locker rooms at Oakmont Country Club.
#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.

Images of the destruction surfaced, prompting fans reactions.
But after news of the incident surfaced, pro golfers have come to his defense.
“This is minimal regards what I’ve seen other players do. Players you would never expect. Oakmont will test any players mental fortitude. Seen it in person. Guess who? 2016,” Graeme McDowell cryptically posted.
Interestingly, the 2016 U.S. Open he is referencing also was played at Oakmont.

“I have inflicted severe Locker destruction through the years at US Opens and paid my fines. Generally they have been our temporary build lockers. Not members lockers. Not that that’s an excuse. Generally it’s been when I’ve felt the USGA have pushed the limits over the edge ,” Ian Poulter then replied to the tweet.
This was not the first time Clark has left his own carnage behind.
A month ago, he flung his golf club and damaged the T-Mobile sign at the PGA Championship. That prompted an extensive apology from the former U.S. Open winner on social media.
That begs the question whether Clark will post anything after his latest reported outburst. Will he receive any fines?
After the two best years of his professional career in 2023 and 2024, things have not gone well in 2025.
In 16 events, Clark has missed the cut four times and has just one top 10.
