The U.S. Open has been surprisingly kind to golfers who've never won a major before -- the last five winners were all first-timers, and that's not even the longest streak in the event's history.

What happened to J.T.? Is Rickie back? Can Wyndham keep this up? We answer all the big questions coming out of the U.S. Open.

Eight-time major champion Tom Watson wants answers on the PGA Tour's new business partnership with Saudi backers of LIV Golf, asking in a letter Monday to Commissioner Jay Monahan if the deal was the only way to solve the tour's financial hardship.

Wyndham Clark climbed to 13th in the Official World Golf Ranking after a breakthrough U.S. Open win. He was 241st in the world the day after the 2022 U.S. Open.

Wyndham Clark won his first major championship on Sunday, shooting a final-round 70 to finish at 10-under-par for the tournament and hold off four-time major champion Rory McIlroy by one shot. The victory was a surprise for many, as Clark had never finished better than 75th in a major championship and had missed the cut in his previous two U.S. Opens. But Clark played steady golf all week, and hit some key shots down the stretch to hold off Rory. The difference to me was the 14th hole, where Wyndham hit a 280 yard second shot to 20 feet and Rory hit his 125 yard third shot into a bunker.

LACC started the week off in controversial fashion with two players shooting major championship record tying 62’s along with a host of other low scores, but redeemed herself as a solid US Open venue with some more moderate scoring over the last few days. It was however, the lowest scoring average in US Open history with 71.16. I have never played there, but despite a few negative player reviews, I liked the look and setup of the course for the week. I would have liked to see the short 15th play around 120 yards long on Saturday instead of the very short 80 yard shot they had it set up for.

Rory was so close, yet again! On Sunday he hit more greens than any other player yet turned in his worst putting performance of the week, losing 2.25 strokes to the field. Here are his strokes gained putting stats by round:

1st: +2.74 2nd: +1.89 3rd: -1.19 4th: -2.25

In a disturbing trend he seems to hit the ball well, yet perhaps rather conservatively, on major Sundays and putt poorly. The longest putt he converted in his final 22 holes was a 7 foot putt for par on the 16th on Sunday. It pretty much was St. Andrews all over again!

After nine years, no one is more determined to win another major title than Rory McIlroy. But his belief he can overcome 'fine margins' remains as strong as ever as he prepares to go back to Hoylake for the 2023 Open Championship.

After electrifying with an opening-round 62 and taking a share of the U.S. Open lead into Sunday, Rickie Fowler stumbled to a final-round 75, finishing in a three-way tie for fifth. Still, there was a significant bright side to his week.

Rory McIlroy says he'll "rue some of the chances that I missed today" after failing to sink a single putt over 8 feet while falling 2 strokes short of the U.S. Open title.
