He started the final round one stroke behind in a tie for second place. But ask anyone who’s tournament it was to lose at the Dell Technologies Championship, and the answer was Bryson DeChambeau. Victorious a week ago at the Northern Trust, his second US PGA Tour win this season and third in the 24-year-old’s nascent pro career, DeChambeau came to TPC Boston with even more confidence than the former NCAA and US Amateur champion usually carries. And nothing over America’s Labour Day weekend seemed to change that.
Consider that during Sunday’s third round, DeChambeau got to fulfill a dream by playing with Tiger Woods, his “childhood idol”, in a competitive round for the first time. Rather than show any awe or nerves, DeChambeau posted a nifty 63 that likely silenced any doubters as to whether he deserves a spot one of Jim Furyk’s three Ryder Cup captain’s picks.
It was more of the same this morning, DeChambeau closing with a ho-hum four-under 67 to win the tournament by two strokes. DeChambeau started the back nine with only a two-stroke lead. But on a day when scores were low, and tonnes of big-name players were in lingering on the leaderboard, it still felt like the tournament was essentially over.
DeChambeau once again earned the first-place cheque of $US1.62 million, bringing his 2018 earnings to a little more than $7.3 million. As for how much money the rest of the field took home from their time at TPC Boston? Here’s the breakdown for every play who made the cut this past week.
