Who is US Open golf champ Wyndham Clark’s girlfriend, Emily Tanner?

Wyndham Clark may have lifted the 2026 US Open trophy at Shinnecock Hills on Sunday, but for golf fans, he might be better remembered as the man who spoiled the world No 1 Scottie Scheffler’s Grand Slam chase – on the latter’s birthday, nonetheless.
Fans still haven’t forgiven Clark for his locker-smashing tantrum at the Oakmont Country Club in 2025, and placing him alongside golden boy Scheffler only made the crowds more hostile. As Clark stumbled early on in the final round, hecklers shouted, “Don’t choke, Wyndham!” and “Nobody likes you,” turning the fairways into a pressure cooker.

But there’s one person who has no doubt that Clark deserves all the trophies – his girlfriend, Emily Tanner. She communicated that message to the haters pretty clearly in her most recent Instagram post with Clark, captioned, “The most deserving. You did it!”
Here’s everything you need to know about Emily Tanner, who Clark calls his “good luck charm”.

The two went public at the 2026 Masters in Augusta, Georgia, on April 9, where Tanner appeared as the golfer’s caddie during the Par 3 Contest, wearing a white jumpsuit with his name on the back. Clark sealed the moment with a heartfelt Instagram caption calling her his “good luck charm”.
Fellow golf WAG, Brooks Koepka’s wife Jena Sims, even chimed in with a playful “Hard launch!” comment, confirming what everyone suspected: Clark was officially off the market. Since then, Tanner has frequently cheered Clark on at his tournaments.
