As with all of DeChambeau’s irons, his wedges check in at 37.5 inches in length. That’s the length of a 6 or 7-iron and 2.25 inches longer than Ping’s standard 54 or 56-degree Glide 4.0.
While Pinehurst did its best to knock him down, DeChambeau refused to yield, capping a resurgence whose improbability is bested by the fact that the game’s former divisive figure has become one of its most beloved.
DeChambeau became the 23rd player to win multiple US Open titles, and he is the seventh player in the past 40 years to win America’s national championship twice within a five-year span.
At four-over par and in a tie for 25th, Lee is the best of the three Aussies who made the cut, his third round of two-over 72 comprised of five bogeys and three birdies.
Rules officials are not there to decide on the validity of the rules, but rather to enforce them and make sure they’re administered equally for all 156 players in the field.
As predicted by many, Pinehurst No.2 played tougher during the second round of the US Open, where three Australians are through to the weekend and ultra-impressive Swede Ludvig Åberg leads.
