There was one marching order if you wanted to win the CJ Cup Byron Nelson: You must go looooowwww!!!! Since the event moved to TPC Craig Ranch in 2021, the winning score had been 23-under 261 or lower every year, with Scottie Scheffler winning by eight strokes last May after posting a record 31-under 253.
Wyndham Clark did much better than the average and fell just short of the record. The 2023 U.S. Open champion shot a final-round 60 to finish the week at 30-under total to collect his fourth PGA Tour title and top Si Woo Kim by three shots. World No. 1 Scheffler finished third, five behind Clark.
Clark earned $1.854 million from the overall $10.3 million purse. His last victory came more than two years ago at the AT&T Pebble-Beach Pro-Am. He started the season ranked 46th in the world and had dropped to 75th entering this week.
