Golfers who struggle with slicing the ball should focus on three key areas, according to Top 100 Teacher Chris Ryan. First, check your grip. A weak grip can promote slicing, so make sure your hands are positioned correctly on the club. Second, work on developing an inside-out swing path. This means swinging the club from the inside to the outside on the downswing, which will help to square the clubface at impact and reduce slicing. Finally, focus on making a more compact swing. A long, loopy swing can lead to slicing, so try to keep your swing short and controlled.
Bryson DeChambeau’s caddie, Tim Tucker, was left bewildered after the golfer approached him with an unexpected request during the final round of The Masters.
Tucker, who has caddied for DeChambeau for over two years, was initially taken aback. However, he quickly realized that the 2020 U.S. Open champion had become disoriented on the sprawling Augusta National Golf Club.
Tucker reportedly guided DeChambeau back to the correct hole, but the incident has raised questions about the golfer’s mental focus during the tournament. Sources close to DeChambeau have suggested that he may have been struggling with exhaustion and dehydration on the final day.
Bryson DeChambeau claimed his second U.S. Open title by the narrowest of margins, holing a 3-foot, 11-inch birdie putt on the 72nd hole to win by a single stroke. The victory, his first major since the 2020 U.S. Open, was a testament to DeChambeau’s determination and resilience.
DeChambeau had trailed by two strokes heading into the final round but shot a 2-under 68 to force a playoff with Matthew Fitzpatrick. In the three-hole playoff, DeChambeau birdied the first hole and held on for pars on the next two to secure the victory.
It was a dramatic conclusion to a major championship that was full of twists and turns. DeChambeau’s victory was a reminder that even the smallest of margins can make all the difference in golf.
