Who Are Wyndham Clark?s Parents? All You Need To Know About Them

Wyndham Clark had recently tasted success at the Wells Fargo Championship, his first PGA tournament win, and it has boosted his confidence. At the ongoing US Open in Los Angeles, he shot six-under 64 in the first round on Thursday and was just behind Rickie Fowler and Xander Schauffele.

In the second round, he made a three-under-par 67 and went one place above Schauffele and is now sitting in second place behind Fowler. A lot of credit goes to Wyndham’s parents who played a massive role in his development as a golfer. As Wyndham brings glory to them at the US Open, let?s learn about who are his parents and what they do.

Mother Lise’s unconditional support for Wyndham

Wyndham was born to Randall Clark and Lise Clark in Denver, Colorado where he was raised as well. Randall is a former professional tennis player who had to give up the sport owing to his injuries. His mother Lise worked at a marketing company Mary Kay. Unfortunately, she passed away in 2013 due to breast cancer. Both Randall and Lise were great supporters of Wyndham and always encouraged him to carry on with his interest in golf.

His mother Lise Clark had a degree in Bachelors of Business Administration from Baker University. She was a working mom and worked as a Beauty Consultant at the independent business Mary Kay. She had also worked as a Support Specialist at Mission Financial Planning. Lise got Wyndham into golf during his childhood days.

Her support and encouragement definitely worked wonders for her son. Talking to Golf.com about her belief in his success, Wyndham said: ?Obviously it?s probably something she knew would always happen because she?s very positive and always thinks the best of me, so she?d be like, ?That?s right where my Wyndham belongs. But I think she?d be more proud of who I am today and what I?ve become as a person.?

Mother’s sad demise and his father’s role in Wyndham’s life

Although Lise never played golf herself she made sure that Wyndham continued with his practice. Wyndham had previously said, ?She was not a golfer, so outside of after getting me into golf, she didn?t do much as far as golf.? He confirmed that Lise was always there to console him when he had bad days on the course. ?She was always there to comfort me.?

After she died in 2013 while he was at Oklahoma State. It was a very tough phase for Wyndham who wanted to quit golf. He was distracted and frustrated with his performances.

After he took a transfer to Oregon, life became a bit easier but he still missed her massively. During his practicing years, Lise would leave little encouragement notes for her son to boost his morale and her one message has been stuck with him ever since. She wrote: ‘Play big’. Wyndham explained what it meant. ?Play for something bigger than yourself. And I?ve taken that to heart.?

His father Randall has always been there for him. After his time in tennis, he has worked as a professional in the corporate sector and held key roles at many organizations.

Randall has been often spotted visiting Wyndham at his tournaments along with his other children. The support of his father has also played an important role in shaping Wyndham?s golf career. And Randall continues to fulfill the duties of two parents providing Wyndham with love and support.

Wyndham also has two siblings, a brother named Brendan and an older sister Kaitlin.
