REPORT: Bryson DeChambeau’s sends brutal nine-word threatening statement puts Rory McIlroy on notice
Bryson DeChambeau won his second US Open title at Pinehurst No. 2 last weekend, denying Rory McIlroy a first major since 2014 – and the American has now sent a warning to his rivals
Bryson DeChambeau has sent a warning to Rory McIlroy and his fellow pro golfers, claiming he feels unstoppable after clinching the US Open.
DeChambeau, who is now ranked 10th in the world, also believes his game is better than ever having secured his second major at Pinehurst No. 2. McIlroy’s hopes of ending a decade-long major drought were dashed in the final five holes, with costly missed putts on the 16th and 18th sealing his fate.
While McIlroy quickly exited the scene of his latest near-miss, DeChambeau celebrated his second major win with a clutch four-foot putt on the last hole following an impressive bunker shot. The 30-year-old, who also won the US Open at Winged Foot in 2020, feels that his current Official World Golf Ranking doesn’t accurately represent his level of play, reports the Express.
Speaking to Golfmonthly, DeChambeau said: “So what’s funny is in 2018 when I won back-to-back FedExCup Playoff events, I felt like even though the OWGR didn’t reflect me being No.1, I felt like I was No.1. I felt like I was playing good enough to where I could win this week. I could win again and I could win again.”
