“#Bryson DeChambeau\u2019s bid to overpower golf is a must-watch<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n CROMWELL, Conn. \u2014 If you\u2019re wondering why I\u2019m writing about Bryson DeChambeau again, I\u2019ll tell you why: Because I can\u2019t take my eyes off of him.<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t a man-crush. It\u2019s pure fascination. The guy is five hours of theater every time he tees it up now. <\/p>\n

With due respect to Lee Majors, the 26-year-old DeChambeau has turned himself into a modern-day \u201c$6 Million Man\u2019\u2019 (not including inflation).<\/p>\n

He\u2019s transformed his old self (which was pretty damned good considering his five PGA Tour victories from 2017-19) into this new, bulked-up being that looks like it can leap tall buildings in a single bound. With his biceps bulging through his sleeves, he\u2019s Popeye in a golf shirt.<\/p>\n

The new DeChambeau, with his 25 pounds of added muscle, has not yet won. But he\u2019s vaulted himself front-and-center as one of the most entertaining stories in golf since the PGA Tour restarted its season three weeks ago at Colonial Country Club.<\/p>\n

DeChambeau, whose added length off the tee made even Rory McIlroy, one of the longest hitters in the game<\/a>, blush as he watched DeChambeau air-mail tee shots past his at the Charles Schwab Challenge.<\/p>\n

DeChambeau finished tied for third at Colonial. Then he finished tied for eighth at the RBC Heritage last week at Hilton Head. <\/p>\n

Now, as the Travel<\/a>ers Championship enters its final round Sunday at TPC River Highlands, DeChambeau is in contention to win yet again, having shot a 5-under 65 in Saturday\u2019s third round to stand at 13-under.<\/p>\n

That has him five shots behind leader Brendon Todd, whose 9-under 61 on Saturday got him to 18-under with a two-shot lead over Dustin Johnson.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s likely going to take a career round for DeChambeau to win Sunday. So, for the third consecutive week, for all of the progress he\u2019s made, it\u2019s likely DeChambeau again will go home without a trophy, the big check and bonus FedExCup points.<\/p>\n

The previous two weeks, he let one round derail his chancing of winning. They both were Saturday 70s. He bettered that number by five shots Saturday, but believed it should have been considerably lower \u2014 just as he believed the previous two rounds should have been, too.<\/p>\n

This is a central part of what draws you to DeChambeau: He wears his emotions so prominently on his sleeve that, when a shot doesn\u2019t go exactly where his analytical brain was willing it to go, he looks utterly dumbfounded.<\/p>\n

DeChambeau, who is a cumulative 44-under in the 11 rounds he has played since the PGA Tour restart, expects every shot to be perfect. And when it isn\u2019t, his expression tells you he believes he\u2019s been wronged. <\/p>\n

\u201cThere were plenty of shots where I had these massive jumpers and I don\u2019t understand them one bit,\u2019\u2019 DeChambeau said, sounding like a scientist who\u2019s been left in the lab perplexed by an experiment gone sideways. \u201cThey come out randomly. Those are things that kind of dumbfound me, and that\u2019s golf. If I could figure that out, I\u2019d be that much closer to figuring out the game. That will never happ<\/a>en.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

That, of course, won\u2019t deter him in his pursuit of perfection.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m right on the cusp of doing something really fun,\u2019\u2019 DeChambeau said, sounding stoked by the thought.<\/p>\n

\u201cFun\u2019\u2019 equates to winning. But he insists he\u2019s not obsessing on the result at the moment, rather on his path.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not even worried about that,\u2019\u2019 DeChambeau said. \u201cThat\u2019s one of those things that when everything lines up and comes into play, that\u2019ll take care of itself. What I have to do is imagine that I\u2019m like the casino and just keep playing.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

There will come a time, though, when not winning will wear on DeChambeau\u2019s psyche. If that win doesn\u2019t come Sunday, how long until it does? And, how long does DeChambeau stay sane without his hard work rewarded with a win or three? <\/p>\n

\u201cI think I already am feeling the rewards of it,\u2019\u2019 he said. \u201cI\u2019m plus-33 strokes gained off the tee since February 10th. That\u2019s pretty good. Iron play has been good, putting has been decent. Chipping around the greens is something I need to improve on. I don\u2019t feel like it\u2019s that bad, it just isn\u2019t great.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

DeChambeau, though, believes \u201cgreat\u2019\u2019 is waiting for him on the next tee box.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve had a chance to shoot 63 every single day out here and haven\u2019t done it,\u2019\u2019 he said. \u201cI think that\u2019s in play [Sunday]. And if I go out and birdie the first couple holes and give myself a chance on [numbers] 3 and 4, it\u2019s \u2018Watch out.\u2019 \u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

A common analogy DeChambeau has been using of late has been about \u201cplaying the casino.\u2019\u2019 Asked if he\u2019s referring to himself as a player or the house, he said, \u201cI\u2019m definitely trying to be the house.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

The house, of course, always wins.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
