00:00 In sports news, American Wyndham Clark has won one of golf's biggest tournaments, beating
00:05 Northern Ireland's Rory McIlroy by a single shot at the US Open in LA.
00:10 The 29-year-old, who's ranked 32 in the world, was the underdog going into the tournament.
00:16 His win means McIlroy has now gone nine years without winning a major golf title, despite
00:21 being ranked world number three.
00:24 Here's Clark speaking after clinching the title.
00:28 It's now my second win on the PGA Tour.
00:32 First one was surreal and this one's surreal.
00:34 So, you know, it hasn't quite hit me yet.
00:37 Walking up 18 was pretty emotional and then finishing.
00:41 But yeah, it's been a whirlwind of the last five, six weeks.
00:45 It's been, I'm just so blessed and humbled to be here.
00:48 I know my mom's proud of me.
00:51 She's always been proud of me and regardless of how I'm doing or what I'm doing, you know,
00:56 I just wish he could be here and we can enjoy this.
