Graeme McDowell of Northern Ireland shot a 3-over 74 to win the 110th U.S. Open championship on Sunday at Pebble Beach Golf Links.
McDowell is first European to win the U.S. Open since Tony Jacklin in 1970.
McDowell, who now has six victories worldwide, managed to hang on when no one else, including the top two players in the world Tiger Woods (75) and Phil Mickelson (73), were able to make a move.
Dustin Johnson of the USA, the 54-hole leader, shot a 42 on the front nine, including losing six shots in a three-hole stretch, to knock himself out of contention. He shot a final-round 82.
