US Open champion Wyndham Clark has made a surprising personal claim involving NFL quarterback Baker Mayfield . Speaking on Barstool Sports ’ Pardon My Take podcast after winning his second US Open title, Clark said a former girlfriend cheated on him with Mayfield when both were in college.

Mayfield has not publicly responded to the allegation, which remains Clark’s personal account of events.

Wyndham Clark claims former girlfriend cheated on him with Baker Mayfield
The story came up when hosts on Barstool Sports’ Pardon My Take podcast showed Clark an old social media post from 2016 that read, “I hate baker mayfield.” Clark then decided to explain the reason behind the message. “I’m trying to decide if I should tell the story… alright screw it I don’t care. People already hate me,” he said.

The two-time US Open champion then claimed that a girlfriend from his college years had been unfaithful to him with Mayfield, who was playing football at the University of Oklahoma at the time. Clark was attending Oklahoma State University before later transferring to the University of Oregon.

“My girlfriend at the time cheated on me with Baker Mayfield,” Clark said. “But here’s what I would say: I’m actually a Baker fan now, I think he’s a homie.” Clark made it clear that he does not blame the Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback today.

“That’s your initial response, ‘Screw that guy.’ But really it’s screw the [girlfriend],” he said. He even suggested that he would like to meet Mayfield on a golf course one day and put the situation behind them. “I hope this is a bro moment for us to be like ‘Oh, bro, I didn’t know. My bad. She never told me,’ and I’ll tell him, ‘It’s all good, we’re homies, let’s play golf.’”
