[intriguing music playing]
[reporter] We're talking
golf for the Paris Olympics.
Scottie Scheffler, he's number
one in qualifying right now.
Now the reigning U.S.
Open champ, Wyndham Clark,
he's also right in the
mix to make the US Team.
Plenty of golf…
Growing up in a household
that loves sports,
the Olympics was a big part
of our life when it was on.
Winter or summer,
we were watching.
As a little kid, you watch the
biggest athletes in the world,
Jordan and Kobe, and,
you know, these guys,
you know, being on some
of those dream teams,
you see them represent the flag.
And, you know, they're going
over there essentially for free,
but they want to do it to
represent their country.
It makes you, as a young kid, go, you
know, "I want to be there someday."
- [man] Nice. And, uh, hand in pocket.
- [camera beeping]
Both arms crossed. Nice.
Your arms are
crossed for us. Nice.
[Rapaport] The Olympics is
gaining more importance in golf.
This year, all the guys who are in the
mix have said they want to go play.
There's no way around making this
team other than really good golf.
[Dethier] And Wyndham
Clark is right on the cusp.
[commentator] The champion of
the U.S. Open, Wyndham Clark.
[Dethier] But the US Team has a lot of
top players and a ton of competition.
The only country that's nearly
as competitive is Australia.
The Olympics, it is a pinnacle for a
lot of athletes back home in Australia.
[Rapaport] They've had great
champions in their history.
Guys like Adam
Scott and Jason Day.
Min Woo Lee is the 25-year-old who's
expected to take that leap this year.
[commentator] Leading
up to the flag!
In for eagle!
[commentator 2] Are
you not entertained?
[Rapaport] Min Woo's a really exciting
prospect. He's got a lot of aura.
He's got a massive
following on social media.
[Min Woo] There's a lot of
pressures on playing well
from talking more than
normal on social media.
[Koyack] Especially because
his sister, Minjee Lee,
is an incredible superstar
out on the LPGA Tour.
But how special would it
be to play in an Olympics
representing your country
alongside your sister?
[Rapaport] No one's guaranteed
anything. You gotta earn your way.
I'm hoping I can go and represent
my country on that podium.
Representing Australia
would be incredible.
Probably the biggest
achievement in my life.
[dramatic music playing]
[upbeat music playing]
[Min Woo]This year, being in America
has been very crazy and surreal-feeling.
Hey, Min Woo.
Obviously, getting on
Netflix, uh, is pretty cool.
Um…
Uh, I think if I was kind of
boring, I wouldn't be here.
[man] In terms of style, is there someone
in the history of golf who you like?
Tiger back in the days.
You know, he had the
long… the long shirts,
and he looked kind of… he
looked kind of swaggy back then.
So I try to make myself
look as stylish as possible,
and I just think if you look in the mirror
and feel good, hopefully you play well.
[man] Yeah, looking good.
That little chain, it's
like Tiger used to wear.
[man 2] New profile page.
[Stephen] I met
your sister first,
and she said you're really
good at social media stuff.
- Oh, yeah.
- Really good at that.
Well, yeah, we're like…
we're completely opposites.
Like, I got social media. She
doesn't have social media.
I mean, she could be a lot more social
on a social media account, for sure.
'Cause she posts like once… She
posts like ten times a year. Like…
I post like ten times a month.
- I post ten times a day.
- I post too much. Yeah.

[Min Woo] I love social media.
I have just cracked 600,000
followers on Instagram.
I try to be as real and
honest on social media.
I guess people like that.
I like to make people
laugh and have fun
and know I make a lot of people
happy and a lot of people motivated.
[chanting] Let him
cook! Let him cook!
[Min Woo] It was just
like a meme on Instagram,
and someone commented,
"Just let him cook."
So then I put it in a caption, and
now everyone just started saying it.
- And it's just popped off.
- [man] Let that man cook!
Do you actually cook? I'm like,
"No, I'm not a great chef."
[commentator] He's cooking. And he's
got the thunderclap going as well.
[Balionis] I think Min
Woo Lee is every Gen Zer,
so he is so much more relatable
than maybe what most people think of
when they think of a
professional golfer,
conservative,
quiet, introverted.
Min Woo Lee is not that guy,
and fans have absolutely
fallen in love with this kid.
And everyone's just kind of
waiting for him to break through
so that he can be taken
to even a higher level.
[Min Woo] It's amazing to have people
support at places that I don't expect.
[boy] Oh yes! Yes!
[laughs]
[Min Woo] It's a big
part of why I play,
and every time I post a video
just before a tournament,
I'm like, "sh*t, I
gotta play good."

[Min Woo] Um, you know,
I had a couple weeks off,
and, uh, it was a bit too far
to go back to Australia,
so come over here to Vegas.
And my sister's in town, and
I can go and support her.
A bit of a crowd.
[Gracie] Yeah.
[Min Woo] She's playing today.
- To see her play good golf is cool.
- [Gracie] Yeah.
[high-pitched] Let her
cook, mate! Let her cook!
[Min Woo] She doesn't show emotion.
She just gets on with her work.
She doesn't really mess around too
much, unlike me. I'm the opposite.
I want the whole world to
know what I'm doing, so…
Something to learn off her too.
There you go.
Even though Min Woo Lee is this
good golfer in his own right,
his older sister, Minjee,
she has that on lock.
Two-time Major winner.
She has accomplished
more than he has to date,
and I think he's got some
little-brother syndrome about that.
My sister's pretty good at golf,
and she wins LPGA tournaments a lot.
I think my success was pressure,
but also like motivation
because he didn't really want
to be in my shadow, I think.
[Wilson] Unlike Min Woo, Minjee
is a lock for the Australian team.
They could be the first sibling pair to
ever compete in the Olympics in golf.
But only if Min Woo
has an amazing season.
[Min Woo] You want
this moved, Min?
When I was ten to fifteen,
I was just a younger brother,
and she was the older sister.
I'd annoy the crap out of her,
and she would never really
want me close during practice.
[Minjee] We were always around
golf, and my parents all played.
Mom used to coach, and my
dad was a single handicapper.
So they both had really
hard work ethics.
Min Woo was quitting
golf every couple months,
and my personality is much
different from Min Woo.
So Min Woo was always
kind of like the jokester.
And he'd like to muck around.
[Min Woo] Nice. Keep
going. Wear the gloves.
- [man] You see that one?
- [Min Woo] No.
"Lee is a head case. Lots of
talent, but his focus is lacking."
"Who cares? He's a TikTok golfer.
Average on tour, at best."
- [Gracie] What did they say?
- [Min Woo] Who knows? It's sh*t.
[poignant music playing]
[Min Woo] People are gonna just
say I'm a social media guy.
Yeah, it kind of makes me mad.
[Gracie] Who cares? Am I right?
[Min Woo] Min cares.
You can get dragged into it, and
it can hurt your feelings, I guess.
But I try to not let
that affect me as much.
[Gracie] People are
gonna say what they want,
but it becomes less of an
insecurity when you talk about it.
No.
[Gracie] And I'm sure there is
a bit of added pressure to it,
but I wouldn't say pressure
is a bad thing either.
It helps you to perform.
The best thing you can do
is just be there for them,
and if there's something
wrong, you will figure it out.
Minjee has accomplished so much,
and Min really looks up to
her for that success as well.
[Min Woo] I think that's good to
try to live up to her standards,
but I'm not quite there yet.
So hopefully in
the future, I can.
Yeah, I'm gonna look
forward to that moment.
[John] All right, you ready
for this little whupping?
I don't think you could hang
with the bright lights, kid.
I don't think you can either.
♪ Gosh bless America ♪
[man] All right, Wyndham,
Full Swing season three.
What's changed in your
life since season two?
Um…
Let's see. I, uh… People
know who I am a lot more.
I've never really been part of reality TV,
and now it's becoming a reality for me.
But, you know, the show's done so much
good for getting my story out there.
Honestly, it's amazing the amount
of love that I've gotten from that.
Oh boy.
- [John] God, that's a bummer.
- God dang it.
[John] When he first came to college,
he was this so-called hotshot kid
who, um, lost his mom
and kind of lost his way.
You know, he was supposed
to be the next big thing,
and this talent was wasted
because of his attitude,
how he handled certain things.
He expected to be what he is today,
one of the best players in the world.
I mean, the greatest
compliment in golf right now
is being compared to
Scottie Scheffler.
You just gotta tip your
cap, and it makes me better,
makes me have to play better,
makes me more motivated.
Now we just gotta clip him.
Yeah, I can't wait till we finish
first, and he finishes second.
- I can't wait to say, "How does it feel?"
- [Wyndham] Yeah.
[man laughs]
[dramatic music playing]
[Rapaport] Clark
came out of nowhere.
It was like the guy hadn't won
a tournament in five years,
and then he's one of the best players
in the world, wins a Major championship.
[crowd applauding, cheering]
[commentator] It's all
up to Wyndham Clark,
who takes down all the
stars in Los Angeles
to win the United States Open!
[Rapaport] Anytime someone wins
a Major for the first time,
you're wondering, "Is
this an aberration?"
But Wyndham is showing us here
that maybe it wasn't winning a
Major that was an aberration.
It was the five years before.
And this is kind of
the guy who he is now.
He's made changes in his life where he
feels like he can sustain this level.
[Wyndham] What's up?
[man] There it is, Mark. Hello.
[Mark] There we go.
Is that Wyndham Clark?
What up, bro? Good to see you.
- I'm doing good.
- Great finish.
When you are trying to
become a professional golfer,
you never think you'd be
working with a celebrity,
and someone especially
like Mark Wahlberg.
I grew up watching his movies.
Working on this brand
together, which is super cool…
[Mark] When I saw
Wyndham on the show,
I wanted to call and commend him
for the way he was really
opening up to people.
I thought he really
touched me in a way
where it's like he's gonna motivate
and inspire a lot of people
to overcome things that
have been holding them back
from achieving their
full potential.
Just to see the way
he conducted himself,
with the maturity and
the grace that he did it,
opening up with the
struggles that he's had,
I thought that is the kind of thing
that moves the needle for other people.
Where are they
playing, uh, in Paris?
Uh, Le National,
where they played the…
Club du golf. Club du golf.
Yeah, it'd be fun.
[Mark] To see him skyrocketing
as a star and as a man,
it was, uh… it was
very impressive.
Gold medal. He
gets a gold medal.
All right, done. Hey, I'm
gonna… We have cameras.
[Wilson] Wyndham Clark is
living the life right now.
He's signed to a
major clothing label.
He's hanging out
with celebrities.
But golf is a fickle game,
and if you take your eye off the ball,
your game can disappear like that.
[Wyndham] All right,
see you, Mark.
[Mark] Don, be good, kid.
[Balionis] We all know that making an
Olympic team is incredibly difficult,
but one of the ways I think these
players can prove to themselves
that they're ready is by
performing really well
on some of the biggest stages
like THE PLAYERS Championship.
[Min Woo] I was eating
breakfast with Rory,
and he was saying that he
hit ba*ls for five hours.
He said three hours in right to
left and two hours in left to right.
[Rapaport] You get into the Olympics
through the world ranking system.
So there'll be four
Americans there
and then two players from all the other
countries that typically produce golfers.
Right now, some teams
are already locked,
like Ireland with Rory
McIlroy and Shane Lowry.
But for the Americans, you
have Scottie Scheffler,
Xander Schauffele, Collin
Morikawa, and Wyndham Clark
fighting with Bryson DeChambeau and
Patrick Cantlay, amongst others.
For the Australians,
Jason Day is a lock,
so Min Woo is battling with
Cam Davis and Cam Smith
for the last spot on the team.
The way the points are set up, if
someone can get a good result here,
it will sh**t them up the rankings and
put them in pole position for Paris.
- [Min Woo] That's the hat I used to wear.
- Imperial?
- Yeah, I think so. Yeah, but like the…
- The high…
- The high crown.
- It adds an extra inch on me.
- Yeah.
- I look taller than what I am.
I'm hiding some height
in there. [chuckles]
[Min Woo] Jason Day, he's put
me under his wing, actually.
When I was 16 or 17, I had a
tournament at a junior invitational,
and, uh, he was a guest speaker.
We ended up having
a long drive comp,
and all the juniors next to me were
like, "Oh, Min Woo, you should do it."
'Cause I was one of the longest out
there. And he hit first, and he hit it…
I don't know, maybe
like 280, 290 yards.
And then I stepped up with
his driver and, uh, smoked it.
[crowd] Ooh!
[Min Woo] As soon as I hit it,
all the boys were like, "Oh!"
Like they knew it was past his.
He's a little string bean
there, but look at the power.
If I did that now, I'd
break my back in half.
But for him to be able to do
that, it was just unbelievable.
[Jason] I think
that's by me, eh?
[overlapping chatter]
- [Jason] Yeah, that's crushed me.
- [applause]
[Jason] Look at him.
He's a little c*ck
there. [laughs]
He was walking off like high-fiving
someone, it looked like.
But I felt that golf was moving too fast
for me watching him hit it, a driver.
[laughs]
[Min Woo] Jason's special.
If I need help with
something, he's always there.
I want to be like him, so I
still have some similarities
that I've copied
and followed him.
I see a lot of myself in him,
and I think he sees him in me.
[Jason] You know, I told him,
"You've got all the key attributes
to become number one."
"You just gotta make a lifestyle change
and, like, say this is… this is golf,
and this is serious, and this is
what you're trying to accomplish
'cause you definitely
have the X-factor stuff
that you need to be the best.
[thwack]
[commentator] Another beautiful
day in Northeast Florida.
TPC Sawgrass, perfect
setting for the final round
of THE PLAYERS Championship.
[Wyndham] I've always wanted
to play well at THE PLAYERS.
I have not traditionally done
very well at the golf course.
[commentator]
Forty-five weeks ago,
Wyndham Clark was a
good player with talent
who you wondered, "When was he
gonna break through and win?"
The U.S. Open champ is
dialed in right now.
[gasps]
- [crowd] Oh!
- [commentator] Oh!
Wow, that was so close.
[suspenseful music playing]
[commentator] What's
Min Woo Lee gonna do?
Oh my.
Ugh.
[commentator] I don't know, but my
back just hurt from watching that.
[commentator 2] He's
gonna be a long way back.
[man] Oh!
[commentator 3] You're probably
disappointed you let that opportunity go.
[commentator] You kind of get
careless, don't pay attention.
[commentator 2] Now you just wanna
just… "Okay, get me to the clubhouse."
[crowd] Oh.
[commentator 2] Just hadn't
been there this week.
[man] Unlucky.
- That's f*cked up. That's f*cked up.
- [woman] It's sad.
[Min Woo] When I play
bad, it is tough.
There's gonna be times when you
might be back against the wall,
but I still got a bit of
time to make this deadline,
and hopefully I can recover.
Don't sh**t now.
[man] No, all right.
[cheering and applause]
[commentator] As we
send you back to 17…
And Clark hit it in the
water here yesterday.
Come on, baby.
Two back. Can't hold back.
Gotta go right at them.
- Okay, here we go.
- Stable. All right.
[crowd clamoring]
Just drop. Drop,
drop, drop, drop.
- [commentator] And it's a good shot.
- [applause]
[commentator] It's gonna get a little…
It's gonna get better and better!
Whoo! Let's go, Wyndham!
[commentator] And Wyndham
Clark has a chance on AT&T…
- A really good spot.
- He's got it now. Come on, Harry!
[commentator] So he has an
opportunity to tie for the lead.
Birdie at 18 to tie Scottie.
[Wyndham] I've always felt and feared
the bad things that are gonna happen
more than believing
the good things are,
and so I felt like I've
changed in that direction,
where I've gotten more and
more belief that I can win.
At the palm trees, and it kind
of feeds down and to the left.
- All right.
- Do I need to draw it?
- I wouldn't mind it.
- Okay.
[John] All right.
[commentator] Clark
needs a birdie.
I think he loves it.
Leg kick.
[crowd cheering]
[applause]
[commentator] Can Clark make
his third straight birdie
and send this to a playoff?
[suspenseful music playing]
[commentator] Make,
he's in a playoff.
Miss, and Scheffler
makes history.
[music drops]
[commentator] Unbelievable!
How did that not drop?
[crowd clamoring]
God.
Take that.
Oh my gosh.
- It's okay.
- Ah. It's okay, Wyndham.
[clapping]
- [woman] Did that just bounce off?
- [woman 2] It lipped out.
That's okay.
It's okay.
Uh, it's okay. Don't be sad. Don't
be sad. Don't be sad. Don't be sad.
- Ugh, so…
- Ugh!
- I still might pass out though.
- [chuckles]
Sheesh! I'm gonna have
to get my heart checked.
[somber music playing]
[Wyndham] I don't know if I've
been this heartbroken in golf.
I was playing good all week
and felt like it was
gonna be a special week.
I'm still just kind of beside
myself that it didn't go in.
For these guys, second
place is never good enough.
But still, it's a big
showing for Wyndham,
and he's in great position
to make the US Team.
For Min Woo, this didn't
do him any big favors,
and so there's more pressure on him
to step up at the next big event,
the Masters.
[Gracie] Uh, Min's first year,
it's been a roller coaster.
It's definitely not as
glamorous as it looks.
You're flying everywhere and you're
discovering new places and new cities,
but I'm still living
out of a suitcase.
So…
[sighs] You still don't really
have, like, a base here.
You're just traveling and
staying with friends and stuff.
Fresh for next year.
Where do you want to live?
A place like Vegas, but Florida's
a pretty big attraction.
But I got friends both places, so
it might be a last-minute decision.
There's a lot of Aussies
that live in Florida though.
Yeah, obviously, Cam's… Cam
Smith's over there in Sawgrass, and
I mean, lot of players
are over there. Tiger, JT.
But, um, speaking of JT, he's
right there walking his dog.
- JT.
- How's it going?
[Min Woo] Just trying to be you.
We were just talking about Florida,
and we were saying who is in Florida.
- And I was like, "You and everyone else."
- [Justin] Yeah.
- Where are you based out of?
- [Min Woo] Australia still, so, um…
[Gracie] Just trying to
pick somewhere to live.
[Min Woo] Just trying to
talk about where to go.
Come to Florida, man. The
summers are hot everywhere.
- But we're traveling so much…
- Yeah. Doesn't really matter.
- Um…
- [Min Woo] Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, I love it, obviously.
[Min Woo] Cool.
I'll think about it.
- Sweet. All right.
- [Gracie] So many choices.
- Nice to meet you.
- [Min Woo] Happy walking.
- [woman] Ready?
- [Wyndham] Yeah.
- Okay, we're gonna sh**t it here.
- Okay.
So I remember Wyndham when he was
this tall, full face of braces.
- Jeez, now you're embarrassing me.
- [laughs]
Most people don't know this.
We're both from Colorado.
We grew up playing junior golf
together, and now we're here.
How do you prepare yourself
for going into an event
where you know you're feeling a
little bit more anxious than normal?
Um, well, the biggest thing is
I always go back to process.
The actual doing of it
rather than the outcome.
You know, for me, lately, I have gotten
a little too much into outcome focus.
Recently, we've switched it back to the
process, and I started playing good.
And so all I focus on is
perfecting that process
and let the outcome
take care of itself.
[Paige] He was always going
to be one of the best.
Now he has to deal with all the
pressure of people looking at him
and having to compete
week in, week out
and being one of the top guys.
Do you still get nervous
on the first tee?
I… Yeah, I mean, I do.
I have those first tee jitters.
You kind of hit the first shot,
and then you get to the green and…
But the great thing is that,
as I've gotten better and
more comfortable out here,
it kind of goes away sooner.
- Yeah, so that's how you win a U.S. Open.
- [Wyndham] Yeah.
- [Paige] When you hit it like that.
- Yeah, it's kind of nice.
- [Paige laughs] You hit it where you want.
- Golf can be fun.
[Paige] Yeah, it
must be really nice.
[emotional music playing]
See you, Dad.
[Min Woo] Being in the
Olympics would be very special.
We all want to be
gold medalists,
but there's gonna be pressures
about making this team.
And whoever comes out on
top will be very worthy.
So it's gonna be tough.
I gotta keep playing well, and, uh,
hopefully I… I do make that team.
[man] Fore!
[commentator] And he's in the
thick stuff, just off the path.
Wyndham Clark, debuting in the Masters,
already with a Major to his credit.
That is rare.
[commentator 2] That's one
that'll keep you up at night.
[commentator 3] Back to
Min Woo Lee. Come on.
[crowd] Aw.
[commentator] Birdie to
join the group at six over.
[suspenseful music playing]
And wow.
Did he get a dose
of Augusta National?
[commentator 2] And that's
a wrap here at the Masters.
[suspenseful music continues]
[Min Woo] Yeah, that early
start was embarrassing.
I wanted to be in a ball, eh?
- [man] Oh well.
- [man] It's a lot though.
- Yeah.
- Yep.
- Mm-hmm.
- No, it's good you fought back.
- Just head home?
- Yeah.
[Dethier] Min Woo played well,
but he still finished behind
his fellow Australians,
which means he's got more work
to do the rest of the year.
[commentator] I know he hasn't shown
it, but I think this is a future star.
Just hit it through
the break there.
[suspenseful music continues]
[commentator 2] He's got
more rough to deal with.
[commentator 3] Wow, that's bad.
[Rapaport] For Wyndham Clark, who
had seemed like an Olympic lock,
he's now in a downward
spiral. All bets are off.
[commentator scoffs] Oh boy.
That's… that's disaster.
- [overlapping chatter]
- [Min Woo] What's up, boys?
- How's it going? You good?
- How you doing? Good to see you.
- What's up, man?
- Hi, man.
What's up, brother? Good
to see you. How we doing?
- Are you down to do a two-v-five scramble?
- [man] You down?
- You and Brad.
- You and Brad versus the rest of us.
[Min Woo] Yeah, I was thinking
one-v-six, but it's all good, boys.
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
We got Min the
man. Let him cook.
- Woo-hoo!
- [man 2] One-ninety-eight?
[Min Woo laughs]
- [man] Wait. Do you hit the gym?
- [Min Woo] Just built different.
- [man] Whoo!
- [man 2] Scary.
[man] It's different
watching it from over here.
- [man 3] That's my miss.
- [chuckling]
[Min Woo] I think it's nice just to be
able to keep golf as fun as possible.
- [man] Right here, Min. Come on, Minny.
- [man 2] Let him cook!
You might find out not to
trash-talk me, but that's all good.
[Min Woo] People that really know me,
I'm not the hardest-working person.
And yeah, I can
work a bit harder.
Damn. That was… That hurt.
But I like to have a lot of fun,
so it's not all about
grinding your a*s off
and trying to overwork it,
you know. Unlike my sister.
She used to just hit ba*ls and
ba*ls, and that's how she operates.
I just get bored after…
I get bored really quick, so
I like to, like, have fun.
- [Min Woo] Ooh!
- [man gasps]
- Hey, Full Swing. How we doing?
- [Min Woo] Oh my God.
You want a lesson on
how to lose your driver,
this would be the way,
ladies and gentlemen.
Thank you guys for tuning in.
Wow, Garrett!
- You snapped it clean off, man!
- Oh my.
- The driver skipped sweet!
- I know. It's just floating.
I'm gonna go get the head.
The head's still good.
[Min Woo] You got another?
[laughs]
[man] He said,
"Just use the back."
Just the tip, bro.
[Min Woo] Oh.
Hey, that's some great
stuff right there.
[man laughs]
[Min Woo] This is what we live for,
right here. This is why we practice.
No way. That's terrible.
It's a terrible putt!
I mean, there was hardships
when I turned pro.
In a way, I've, like, kind of
got kicked back a little bit,
but I've rebounded
well all the time.
- [man] Love that.
- Come on. Come on.
- Two under.
- [man] Love that.
[man 2] There's been
so many horror stories
of people who are more like you,
but then they feel like they have to be
someone different once they turn pro.
Then they start grinding when that's
not what makes them a better golfer.
[Min Woo] There's gotta be a good
balance of having that work ethic
and having that robot type,
but also having a lot of fun.
I'm probably a little bit
more too much on the fun side.
But I'm still trying to learn that, so
I need to start doing the right stuff.
It's close to being good.
[man] Min Woo.
- Next time.
- Next time.
- We should've had that one.
- [Min Woo] Close.
- G. Freaking Bubbie.
- It was an anomaly.
[dramatic music playing]
[commentator] Nothing like it.
From Pinehurst, the U.S. Open
is about to get underway.
I've had pressures for the
last, you know few months
having Olympics on my radar.
A lot of these other Australians
are playing great golf,
so I need to make
some points up.
[Jason] He is not shying away
from being in the spotlight,
and he's got all the
confidence in the world.
[Dethier] Do you feel you play
better when you're high-energy
or when you're loose and calm?
I mean, you see me out there.
I do like to have fun, but trying
to be serious is not my thing.
So, um, I think when
I need to, I will.
I need to have that mindset
of, you know, let's focus.
[suspenseful music playing]
[Wyndham] It's an opportunity
I'm hoping I take advantage of.
I just know what I expect of me, and I'll
let everything else take care of itself.
See you in a week.
[Rapaport] The U.S. Open
is these guys' last chance
to try and qualify
for the Olympics.
For Min Woo, he has to finish
above Cam Davis and Cam Smith
in order to make it to Paris.
That's the only way it happens.
Meanwhile, Wyndham Clark has
to put on a decent performance
and hope Patrick Cantlay
doesn't win this thing.
[chanting] USA! USA!
[Rapaport] Give Cantlay an inch,
and Wyndham's kicked
off the flight to Paris.
[commentator] Wyndham Clark… comes
in with not a lot of confidence.
Talked about the need to just
try to gain some momentum.
[commentator 2] This would
shake out the nerve a little.
[commentator] Or bring them on.
[Min Woo] There's a lot of great players,
and we're all trying to fight for a spot.
[commentator] Let him cook.
- [cheering and applause]
- [commentator 2] He's cooking, all right.
[Min Woo] But I know whoever
gets in is gonna be worthy of,
you know, representing
our country.
[commentator 3] A shame
for Cam and a dropped shot.
[commentator] People were thinking
Cam Smith would play well this week.
[commentator 2] Because of his
short game and his putting.
Man, can he putt.
[suspenseful music playing]
[Min Woo] This is one of the
most pressure-packed situations.
You do not want to miss a putt,
hit a bad shot.
[commentator 2] What a huge
error there for Patrick Cantlay.
[Min Woo] It's tough. It's not
easy to just win tournaments.
[commentator 2] Wyndham Clark
coming off of three straight bogeys.
[Min Woo] And if I don't play
well, someone can overtake me,
so you just gotta play well
when you get the opportunity.
[commentator] Patrick Cantlay
heading to the weekend at a U.S. Open
for the first time.
[commentator 2] Especially
here at Pinehurst,
you've gotta kind
of stay in touch.
[Alicia] I'm excited for today.
I think today will be great.
Like anything else, like when
you don't know what to expect,
sometimes in something like this… it
makes me maybe a little less nervous
'cause you're like, "Well, I don't
know." You just kind of go for it.
This is something you've
dreamed about. I know you have.
At least I feel like I,
mentally, am in the right place
to give myself the best chance,
so I just gotta do my job.
But it is exciting.
Going into the final round, the
Olympic teams are a toss-up.
If Patrick Cantlay wins the tournament,
Wyndham Clark's Olympic dreams are over.
For Min Woo Lee and Cam
Smith, they're neck and neck.
So whoever comes out ahead,
they're going to Paris.
So it's a one-round shootout to
find out who grabs that last spot
on the Australian and
the American teams.
[man] Whoo!
Oh. Oh, he hates it.
- Oh.
- [applause]
It's pretty good.
[commentator 3] Okay, so Cam
Smith from out of the pines there
left with ten.
Well, there's a bit of
wizardry. Look at that shot.
- [commentator 4] Are you surprised?
- [commentator 3] Not at all.
[commentator] This for
birdie. Cam Smith at ten.
Would've been an
all-world birdie.
- [Gracie] Come on.
- [Minjee] Get in.
[crowd] Oh!
- [Minjee] Did it lip out?
- [Gracie] No.
[commentator] My God, he got
this thing knuckling and cutting.
[commentator 2] Wow, that
sounded like a splat in the face.
Yeah, nice shot.
[cheering and applause]
[commentator 3] Green-wide
hole location, front right.
Really good.
[commentator 4] For birdie.
[crowd] Aw.
[man] Oh my gosh.
[Minjee] It is difficult when you're
not doing as well on the golf course,
but I think that is why you have
the people who can lift you up.
At times, it will be hard,
but we all know how much hard work
and effort has gone into playing well.
[commentator] Ouch.
[Minjee] So we both understand
each other in that moment…
Nice shot.
…through all the good
and the bad times.
[commentator] Min Woo Lee has to
make this putt to make it to Paris.
Come on, Min.
[Minjee] I'm just super proud of
him that he's able to dig deep,
and I think it's head down,
bum up, and just do the work.
[suspenseful music plays]
- [cheering]
- Yeah.
[uplifting music playing]
[Minjee] Let's go.
It's really great for me to
see him living out the dream
that he's always wanted,
to get into the Olympics.
[suspenseful music playing]
[commentator] The defending
champion, Wyndham Clark.
[commentator 2]
This peeling left.
That's bunker.
[commentator] He's not been on
top of his game. He knows it.
He has admitted it
early in the week.
He said, "Hey, look, if I made the
cut, that would be a momentum boost
compared to how I've been
playing the last few weeks."
[Wyndham] I just feel so bummed
that I just didn't play my best
'cause I thought this week I
could do something special,
and it just, you know… it
is what it is, I guess.
There's nothing worse
than watching your fate
versus being able to control it.
So sitting there
watching it and going,
"We really don't want
Patrick to win this."
[dramatic music playing]
[commentator] Now Cantlay.
[commentator 2] That
was pretty darn good.
[cheering]
[commentator] A putter
like Patrick Cantlay,
I kind of expect this to end up in the
bottom of the cup as well, Brandel.
[commentator 2] Another good-looking
putt, and Cantlay drops it home!
And the threesome of McIlroy,
DeChambeau, and Cantlay
have separated themselves
from the rest of the field.
[commentator] Pulled
it just to the left.
Wow. That's a poor iron shot.
[Wilson] All of Wyndham's hopes rest on
Patrick Cantlay not making this putt.
[commentator] First time in his career,
he's been in the mix on Sunday at a Major.
[commentator 2] You would think he has
to have this to stay there in the mix.
[commentator] Definitely.
[commentator 2] Feeling
the heat of saving it.
[suspenseful music playing]
[commentator] Oh,
just veered right.
A costly bogey for Cantlay.
And now it does appear it is a
two-player race with those bogeys.
Has Cantlay run out of time?
[inspiring music playing]
[Dethier] Your Olympic
game men's golf team
consists of Xander
Schauffele, Scottie Scheffler,
Collin Morikawa,
and Wyndham Clark.
Yeah, it's, uh…
it's pretty awesome.
I mean, this probably ranks as the
coolest team I've ever made for sure.
Well, Australia's Olympic
golf team has been announced,
with Jason Day and Min Woo
Lee to represent the men
and Hannah Green and
Minjee Lee in the women.
[Min Woo] My sister's
just been waiting on me.
So the time has come, and, uh, yeah,
it's very exciting for the family.
[Min Woo] Being in the
Olympics, it's gonna be special.
Wearing the green and
gold, it's a great honor,
especially, you
know, with my sister.
I think it will be one of the best
achievements, I guess, for our family.
[Minjee] Who hits the
first shot. Do I hit?
- [Min Woo] Yeah, you hit.
- [Minjee] Okay.
Major champion hits.
- Oh.
- [Minjee] Oh.
[Min Woo] Nice shot.
Oh, that's in!
- Oh!
- [Minjee] Ts…
- [Min Woo] All right. All right.
- [Minjee] Oh.
The Olympics, for me, is
just something bigger,
like I'm playing for
something bigger than myself.
But being the first siblings in golf
to, you know, go to the Olympics,
I couldn't really believe it.
Then here we are. [chuckles]
I think I got you.
[chuckles]
This is my team Australia
gear ready to go.
I needed to play well,
and I'm glad I did.
I'm excited to see the Eiffel
Tower and play alongside Jason.
Dreamt of being in the
Olympics when I was younger,
so yeah, hopefully we have some
fight like this boxing kangaroo
and show some grit
and be up there.
[Wyndham] Obviously, I'm on the verge of
one of the biggest things in my career.
I always dreamed of
being an Olympian.
And so now to be part of that
is another thing that I can just
check off my bucket list of…
Man, I'm so blessed and so
fortunate that I get to do it.
Just being there is, in itself… is
amazing. So I'm so… I'm so excited.

[Balionis] Gary Woodland is probably
one of the most beloved players
on and off the golf course.
[commentator] Gary Woodland, brain
surgery less than 12 months ago.
I mean, it's just wild. It's
something you never think you'd hear.
Did you have a headache today?
It came out of nowhere. Our
life was completely changed.
[Gary] But I'm gonna fight.
Whatever works to get
these headaches to go away.
I was raised that if your
heart's beating, you play.
