Rory McIlroy’s horrific collapse hands US Open title to Bryson DeChambeau

The Telegraph  

How does Rory McIlroy possibly get over this? He missed a pair of three-foot putts on the 16th and 18th to lose the US Open by a shot to Bryson DeChambeau, throwing away a glorious opportunity to finally end his infamous major drought. Alas, reality reared its ugly, but depressingly familiar, head and with McIlroy dropping three shots in the last four, DeChambeau was able to steal through, with a remarkable par on the 18th, to lift his national championship for a second time. He leapt around and cheered and shouted to the camera “that is Payne right there” in reference to his golf hero, the two-time US Open champion Payne Stewart whose picture he had printed on his cap. Call DeChambeau what you wish – Mad Scientist, Incredible Bulk, LIV rebel – but his moniker after this excruciating drama is now “Multiple Major Winner”.
