Decheambeau probably wouldn't be a professional golfer if it wasn't for his scientific methods. He realized early on that he doesn't have the "feel" like his peers. So he breaks it down to things he can manage. I respect that because as a golfer this has always been my bugaboo as well. Whatever feel other players as good as me. I just never had it. The more mechanical, robotical, and scientific I am the better I perform. [Reply]

On that point, the Masters prohibits green-reading books which I believe he relies on pretty heavily normally. I doubt this will ever be one of his favorite places to play. [Reply]

Taking a few physics classes at Cocaine U doesn't mean he knows anything about scientific methods. [Reply]
I haven't watched much golf since the LIV tour took most of the stars and it kind of ticked me off. **** them.
I love the game and have been obsessed with it for well over 40 years, got my handicap down to a 6 at one time.
Watched most of the final round yesterday and I have to say, Sheffler is an incredible talent. I didn't think he was boring at all, so much respect for what he was able to do. He could end up being among the best ever.
Every time they cut away to Dechambeau, watching him makes me want to scream. A couple of the smaller guys are generating so much club head speed to get that distance it is amazing. [Reply]

Guess I am not the only one that doesn't care for the LIV thing.
"The weekend tournament came as the sport faces a crossroads in terms of organization and viewership. The PGA Tour and Saudi-backed LIV Golf league have yet to reconcile the terms of last year’s merger, splitting the opportunities for a number of star players to appear at the same events. Meanwhile, notable tournaments have seen a drop in viewership, with recent invitationals seeing more than a 30% year-over-year drop in viewers." [Reply]
