‘The difficulty was through the roof’: Bryson DeChambeau reflects on U.S. Open-winning bunker shot

Bryson DeChambeau has shared his thoughts on the bunker shot that helped him win the 2021 U.S. Open.

With his second shot at the par-5 13th at Torrey Pines South, DeChambeau’s ball landed in a greenside bunker. He said the rough around the bunker made it tough to get a good stance, and the 12 feet of green between his ball and the pin made the shot difficult.

Nevertheless, DeChambeau executed a perfect shot that landed inches from the hole and set up a birdie that would prove pivotal in his victory.

“The difficulty was through the roof,” he said. “The rough was so thick that I couldn’t get a good stance and the pin was tucked in the back left. I didn’t know how he was going to pull that off. It was an amazing shot.”

Speaking to reporters after the tournament, Xander Schauffele commented on Rory McIlroy’s US Open disappointment:

“It’s tough to watch Rory go through what he went through,” Schauffele said. “He’s a great player, and he deserves to win more than he does. But that’s golf. It’s a cruel game. You can be playing the best golf of your life, and then one bad shot can ruin everything.”
