American was only player under par at Winged Foot and is already looking forward to taking his long hitting to Augusta
The Green Jackets cannot say they have not been warned. With seven weeks to go until the Masters begins under towering Georgia pines, Bryson DeChambeau has promised to mirror – or enhance – the approach that delivered US Open glory on Sunday.
DeChambeau is not the sport’s most popular figure but, for now, he is easily its most significant. Should the Californian’s style of blast and gouge prevail at the Masters in November then we really would be in the midst of a revolution. “Length is going to be a big advantage there,” the new US Open champion said. “I know that for a fact. It’s always an advantage pretty much anywhere but I’m going to try and prepare by testing a couple things with the driver.”
