2026 U.S. Open champion Wyndham Clark has plenty to celebrate both on and off the course these days. 

Clark, 32, who won his second U.S. Open title on Sunday, June 21, after emerging victorious in dramatic fashion at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club, is fresh off going public with his girlfriend, model Emily Tanner, at the Masters in April. 

In an exclusive interview with Us Weekly on Tuesday, June 23, Clark said he met Tanner, 31, through a mutual friend after “being a fan of hers for quite a long time.”

“I was with a buddy of mine, and one of his friends was there, and he was like, ‘Hey, man, I got this girl that is a good friend of mine and she’s recently single and she’s accomplished,’” Clark recalled. “He said all of these nice things. I go, ‘Oh, cool, can I see a picture of her?’ He shows me Emily, and I go, ‘No way, I’ve had a crush on her forever.’”

When I’m away from golf, I’m able to decompress and not think about it because we truly just enjoy each other’s time. She’s amazing. She makes everything stress-free for me. She’s my biggest supporter, and she’s always out there watching me.”
