Wyndham Clark came through a final-round tussle with Xander Schauffele to claim a maiden PGA Tour title with a dominant four-shot victory at the Wells Fargo Championship.

Clark saw his two-shot overnight lead disappear inside the opening three holes and he still trailed Schauffele with 11 holes to play, only to take control of the tournament with five birdies in an eight-hole stretch around the turn.

The world No 80 posted a three-under 68 to end the week on 19 under and close out victory over his playing partner in impressive style, with Schauffele having to settle for second after a final-round 70.
