PINEHURST, N.C. \u2014 Wyndham Clark is hoping to rediscover the mojo that carried him to his U.S. Open victory a year ago at LA Country Club.<\/p>\n
That, of course, has been the pinnacle of his career to date.<\/p>\n
His results of late, however, have not exactly inspired anyone to bet the ranch on him repeating as the national champion. <\/p>\n
Clark enters this week\u2019s U.S. Open at Pinehurst having missed his past two cuts \u2014 at the PGA Championship and at the Memorial and has three missed cuts in his past five starts.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy frustration level is definitely higher than it\u2019s been in a long time,\u2019\u2019 Clark said Monday. \u201cIt\u2019s kind of a bummer. I haven\u2019t been playing my best golf. It\u2019s been kind of a tough stretch these last few weeks. I\u2019m trying to gain some momentum for the rest of the season. I know that maybe sounds like low expectations for the week, but honestly, I\u2019d love to just gain some momentum.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n
Clark was very open about the effects the game can have on players mentally, and referred to the suicide death of fellow PGA Tour player Grayson Murray on May 25.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s obviously a very sad and tragic situation that happened,\u2019\u2019 Clark said. \u201cThe unfortunate thing for what we do is it is so lonely and it\u2019s very difficult. Too often I think players, including myself, get tied up so much in score and outcome, [because] the game of golf is so frustrating and so hard.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere are those really lonely times when you miss the cut, you throw your clubs in the car, you drive off, and you\u2019re very pissed off. Obviously, on TV they typically show the guys playing great [and] the game seems awesome. In reality I\u2019d say 80 percent of the field storms off pretty pissed off after a lot of the rounds. That\u2019s just the nature of our game. That\u2019s why it is such a mental game.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s lonely. I\u2019ve been in many low spots where you have some negative thoughts which you don\u2019t ever want to have. Golf can do that to you. You got to do your best to not let it do that.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n
Clark said as he\u2019s played more and gotten more experience, \u201cI\u2019ve learned that there\u2019s so many different skill levels out here, and the difference between the guys that really make it and enjoy the game, have a long career, they\u2019re just better mentally than everyone,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Clark needs to look at a bigger picture of this season, in which he has a win at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, runner-up finishes at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and Players Championship and a third at the RBC Heritage.<\/p>\n
Clark has, in the past year-plus, worked with mental coach Julie Elion and credited much of his success (two wins last year) to her guidance. So, despite the poor recent results, Clark is trying to power on with positive thoughts.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s the great thing about golf: There\u2019s always another week,\u2019\u2019 he said. \u201cI\u2019ve got to believe that good golf is around the corner. I\u2019ve been kind of bummed as of late with my game. I\u2019m always reminded when I get on these practice tees and hit good shots, I\u2019m still doing a lot of good things in practice, and it makes me feel like I\u2019m not far. It\u2019s just bringing it to competition.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m hoping it\u2019s this week and it starts a good run of playing good golf the rest of the year.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
