So apparently Bryson’s father passed away.

I wouldn’t wish that on anyone, and I’m sad for him as a human being.

According to multiple sources, DeChambeau was in Phoenix on Wednesday at Ping headquarters testing equipment.

According to sources, the company had been negotiating with DeChambeau and his agent Brett Falkoff, to extend their relationship, which dated from 2016 when the 2020 U.S. Open champion turned pro. A source said that as part of DeChambeau’s LIV Golf contract, the upstart league had to sign off on the equipment deal and allow Cobra to use his likeness from its tournament footage. LIV had a proposal since at least October and had been unresponsive, according to multiple sources.

“It was such an asinine statement, especially for a guy who is perceived to be all-knowing when it comes to science and physics, that he said he needs a driver that can be hit anywhere and everywhere across the face and find the fairway,” Schomin said. “With increased speed, demands increase precision. It’s just like a race car. You’ve got to be a better driver when you’re running at 200 miles per hour than you do at 75 (mph) going down I-95. He doesn’t believe that. He thinks there is a magic bullet out there. He’s looking for a unicorn.”

I feel bad for him.

I have to agree with Tony on this one. The number of times he has "blamed his driver" for a poor driving day and all. He really isn't the best brand ambassador.

For a guy I wanted to like so much, and try as hard as I did, he made it impossible. 

I could not agree with you more. I kept trying to give him a pass. But so often he really has come across as a petulant baby. 

There were two incidents that kind of happened fairly close to each other timeline-wise. He pitched a big old fit and then stormed off the practice range and went over to a wall shouting and crying about something not working and he just looked like a spoiled brat, then shortly after that he berated the camera man for basically just doing his job. I couldn't defend him on either of those incidents. Since then he's done and said a ton of stuff that makes me say "Bryson DeChambeau, Oy". ... Hey, that would be a great name for a thread on this forum! 🤪

I wanted to hate him from the first time I saw his punchable face and he has given me every reason to do so.

    • A 5400 yd course is not that short for gents driving it 160 yards considering the approach shot lengths they are going to be faced with on Par 4s.  Also, for the course you are referring to I estimate the Par 4s have to average longer than 260 yds, because the Par 5s are 800 yds or so, and if there are four Par 3s averaging 130 the total is 1320 yds.  This leaves 4080 yds remaining for 12 Par 4s.  That is an average of 340 per hole. Anyway, if there are super seniors driving it only 160ish and breaking 80 consistently, they must be elite/exceptional in other aspects of their games.  I play a lot of golf with 65-75 yr old seniors on a 5400 yd course.  They all drive it 180-200 or so, but many are slicers and poor iron players.  None can break 80. I am 66 and drive it 200 yds.  My average score is 76.  On that course my average approach shot on Par 4s is 125 yds.  The ten Par 4s average 313 yds.  By that comparison the 160 yd driver of the ball would have 165 left when attempting GIR on those holes.     
    • I don't think you can snag lpga.golf without the actual LPGA having a reasonable claim to it. You can find a ton of articles of things like this, but basically: 5 Domain Name Battles of the Early Web At the dawn of the world wide web, early adopters were scooping up domain names like crazy. Which led to quite a few battles over everything from MTV.com You could buy it, though, and hope the LPGA will give you a thousand bucks for it, or tickets to an event, or something like that. It'd certainly be cheaper than suing you to get it back, even though they'd likely win. As for whether women and golfers can learn that ".golf" is a valid domain, I think that's up to you knowing your audience. My daughter has natalie.golf and I have erik.golf.
    • That's a great spring/summer of trips! I'll be in Pinehurst in March, playing Pinehurst No. 2, No. 10, Tobacco Road, and The Cradle. 
    • April 2025 - Pinehurst, playing Mid Pines and Southern Pines + 3 other courses. Probably Talamore, Mid-South, and one other.  July 2025 - Bandon Dunes, just me and my dad.
