Jason Day has been battling the injury bug for most of his career, even as a young player. But now he’s 37, a wily PGA Tour veteran by today’s standards, making him even more susceptible to the odd bump or bruise, including ones that occur off the golf course.
Final qualifying went ahead this morning (Monday afternoon in the US) for the 125th US Open at Oakmont Country Club in Oakmont, Pennsylvania. So far, Marc Leishman is the only Australian to have locked in a spot for Oakmont in just over a week’s time.
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.
