There was a school of thought that said once Bryson DeChambeau started to win, he might win in bunches. Well the 25-year-old former US Amateur champion is proving that logic wise. With a one-stroke victory today at the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open, after shooting an efficient five-under 66, DeChambeau picked up his fifth career US PGA Tour title and the fourth in his past 11 tour starts dating back to his win at the Memorial Tournament in June.
DeChambeau’s five wins came in 73 tour starts. The folks at Golf Channel rattled off how quickly a few others were able to win five times on tour:
Justin Thomas: 90 starts
Jordan Spieth: 76 starts
Phil Mickelson: 73 starts
The one they didn’t show is the one that really no one can make: Tiger Woods, 16.
Long story short, DeChambeau has begun to grow into the golfer many felt he had the capability to achieve. Forget all the book smarts and the hours of preparation he puts in.
With the victory, DeChambeau earned $US1.26 million for his effort. Here’s how much prizemoney every player who made the cut at the TPC Summerlin walked away with.
