Wyndham Clark, who is tied for the U.S. Open lead, was not happy with the fact the final few holes of their third round were played in near darkness.
But he wasn’t happy with how late the round finished.
The first pairing that just made the cut didn’t start their round until 9:33 Pacific, which Clarke felt could have been an hour and a half or two hours earlier. Clark is not naive and knows a West Coast U.S. Open — or any other major — gives Fox Sports and other networks a chance to get the most eyeballs watching the tournament, but said it shouldn’t come at the cost of potentially having a direct negative outcome on the event.
“Definitely Rickie and I had a little bit of a disadvantage on those last two holes playing in the dark.”
