Rory McIlroy US Open prize money as Wyndham Clark holds off Irishman

Rory McIlroy suffered more major disappointment on Sunday as he came up just short at the US Open in Los Angeles.

The Holywood man held a share of the lead when he two-putted the par-five opening hole of Sunday’s final round of the 123rd edition of the tournament, but that would prove his only birdie of a disappointing closing 70.

Wyndham Clark’s own 70 was enough to give the 29-year-old American his first major title at Los Angeles Country Club, while McIlroy has now recorded 19 top-10 finishes since winning his fourth in the 2014 US PGA.
