Anderson began the final round four clear of Lloyd, who shot a 79 over the last 18 holes to Anderson's 84 to finish a stroke ahead. Lloyd's win was capped by a three at the finishing hole. Anderson needed a four at the last to tie Lloyd; he reached the green in three, but his putt came up short. Anderson waited four more years for first of his record four U.S. Open titles.
