Championship Sunday got a little wilder for U.S. Open winner JJ Spaun as he and his wife, Melody, may not be on the best of terms.

Spaun, who up until Sunday had a grand total of one (1) PGA Tour victory to his credit, won the U.S. Open on talent, yes. But he won it on tenacity, too, and bend-but-don’t-break mental toughness. He won it because he hung around long enough to make exactly the right move at exactly the right moment.

JJ Spaun is having the greatest Father's Day anyone can imagine, as the images of him with his daughters after his U.S. Open win went viral online.

J.J. Spaun turned a sloppy mess of a U.S. Open at wet and nasty Oakmont into a thing of beauty at the end Sunday with two stunning shots that carried him to his first major championship.
