Wyndham Clark overcame blowing a five-shot lead to edge out Rory McIlroy with a dramatic three-shot victory at the PGA Tour's BMW Championship.
Clark saw his big overnight lead disappear during a thrilling Sunday at Bellerive Country Club, where the US Open champion bogeyed three of his first 10 holes to give hope to McIlroy and the chasing pack.
McIlroy found three birdies in a four-hole stretch around the turn to sit level with Clark heading into the closing stretch, only for his playing partner to post a three-birdie finish to cap off a roller-coaster victory in style.

A level-par 70 was enough for Clark to end the week on 17 under and close out a third PGA Tour victory of the season, following on from the CJ Cup Byron Nelson and the US Open, with Patrick Cantlay claiming solo second to progress through to next week's season-ending Tour Championship.
McIlroy was tied for the lead with three to play but ended four back after a penultimate-hole bogey and Clark's impressive birdie burst, while Gary Woodland, Collin Morikawa and Chris Gotterup shared fourth place.
