Wyndham Clark breaks silence on Oakmont ban after ‘awful’ tantrum

Wyndham Clark expressed remorse Sunday after an “awful” locker-destroying meltdown at this year’s U.S. Open resulted in his banishment from Oakmont Country Club.

Speaking to reporters following a fourth-place finish at the British Open, where he shot 11-under-par at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland, Clark shared that he hopes to be welcomed back to the Pittsburgh-area course in the future, but understands it’s “up to them.”

“I did something awful, and I’m really sorry for it. Hopefully, they have it in their heart to forgive me, and maybe in the future I’ll be able to play there,” the 31-year-old Clark said, according to ESPN.

Clark ignited a storm of controversy in June when he destroyed lockers inside the Oakmont clubhouse after missing the cut at the 2025 U.S. Open — two years removed from his first major win in the tournament at the Los Angeles Country Club.

Last week, Oakmont elaborated on its decision to bar Clark in a letter to members.

“Several of you have inquired about the situation involving Wyndham Clark and the steps being taken in response to his recent behavior. Following multiple discussions with the USGA and the OCC Board, a decision has been made that Mr. Clark will no longer be permitted on OCC property,” club president John Lynch said, according to a copy of the letter obtained by Golf Digest.

“This decision will remain in effect unless formally reconsidered and approved by the Board.

“Reinstatement would be contingent upon Mr. Clark fulfilling a number of specific conditions, including full repayment for damages, a meaningful contribution to a charity of the Board’s choosing, and the successful completion of counseling and/or anger management sessions.”

Clark, who flung his driver in a startling PGA Championship scene in May, added Sunday he wants to show the Pittsburgh community that what transpired at Oakmont is “not a reflection of who I am.”

“Obviously, it’s a no-brainer to pay for the damages. That was a given. Then obviously all the apologies, and I want to give back to the community because I hurt a great place in Pittsburgh, so I wanted to do anything I can to show them that what happened there was not a reflection of who I am and won’t happen again,” Clark said.

The 2033 U.S. Open will be hosted at Oakmont, which happens to coincide with the final year of Clark’s 10-year exemption following his 2023 victory.

This year’s British Open marked Clark’s best finish at the major.

Scottie Scheffler went on to win his second major of the year and his fourth overall after cruising to a four-shot win. He won the PGA Championship in May.
