DeChambeau muscles his way to US Open victory - Sports news - Sportstar
The HinduA bulked-up Bryson DeChambeau bashed his way to a six-shot US Open victory on Sunday, silencing any lingering questions as to whether his brawny game could translate to the major stage. 9 DeChambeau, who began the day two shots back of US Open debutant Matthew Wolff, clinched his first major title with a mix of jaw-dropping drives and clutch putts, shooting a virtually flawless three-under-par 67 to reach six under for the tournament. As difficult as this golf course was presented, I played it beautifully,” DeChambeau said of Winged Foot, on one of the hardest layouts the United States Golf Association has to offer. “But first US Open, second place is something to be proud of and hold your head up high for.” Former British Open champion Louis Oosthuizen birdied the last to finish alone in third place, a distant eight shots back of DeChambeau and one shot clear of Harris English, who made a double-bogey at the first where he lost his tee shot.
