Clark fends off McIlroy to win BMW Championship
LOS ANGELES: A nervy Wyndham Clark birdied the final three holes to dramatically win the BMW Championship on Sunday, having earlier surrendered his five-stroke lead to Rory McIlroy. Clark had claimed his second US Open title earlier this summer by barely clinging on to a huge final-day advantage, and history repeated itself at the penultimate event of the PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup playoffs. Having struggled all day, Clark finally made his first birdie on 16, followed it with another on 17, and watched on with relief as his final pair partner McIlroy bogeyed after finding two separate bunkers. Clark sealed the memorable win with a 17-foot putt for a third straight birdie, and a round of 70 to finish at 17-under par. “It was weird. I wasn’t really nervous.
Gauff powers past Pegula to win Cincinnati WTA 1000 crown
CINCINNATI: Coco Gauff made a statement with the US Open approaching, dominating Jessica Pegula 6-2, 6-4 to win her first title of 2026 at the WTA 1000 in Cincinnati. World number four Gauff claimed her first WTA title since last October in Wuhan, having come up short in finals in Miami and Rome this year. Her victory over third-ranked Pegula gave her a second Cincinnati crown. Gauff earned her first in 2023, going on to claim the first of her two Grand Slam titles at the US Open that year. It was the first all-American WTA final in Cincinnati since Rosie Casals beat Nancy Richey 1970. Gauff polished off an impressive tournament with a victory in 75 minutes and will head to New York on riding a wave of confidence for the start of the US Open next Sunday. Pegula, coming off a hard-fought win over defending champion Iga Swiatek, had no answer for Gauff’s speed and aggression. Gauff broke Pegula twice for a 4-0 lead and was up 5-0 before Pegula got on the scoreboard, holding serve and clawing back a break. It was a brief reprieve as Gauff broke again to pocket the opening set after 34 minutes. The second set was more of the same, Gauff breaking on the way to a 3-0 lead and Pegula playing catch-up. Gauff polished off the victory on her first match point to conclude 12 days of tennis at the sprawling Midwest venue. Gauff’s win squared the career series between the two at five wins each.
