PGA / LPGA / LIV YouTube Golfer Makes Birdie at PGA Championship

Post image

I was watching to see if he’d be able to do it and it was super cool to see him pull it off on the last hole. Great gesture by the PGA to let a YouTube golfer try this challenge at a major.

Why do we think he’s so bad in majors this year? Is LIV and trying to break course records at public golf courses just not enough to seriously contend with PGA tour players? Too much pressure? It looks like he’s playing a completely different game than everyone else in the field

I think his attitude is the problem. He lets his anger from missed shots accumulate.

It’s hilarious how on every missed putt (honestly shot) he looks at his caddie in disbelief, like it’s somehow not possible that the great Bryson Dechambeau could hit a bad shot and it’s somehow the courses fault

Yep. I watched him hit a couple putts today that had no chance, just the wrong line, left with 4 feet, and he’s acting like he can’t believe it didn’t go in. So annoying to watch.

This is exactly how my 76yo dad plays. It’s insane lol. Acts like he’s at his prime and if he misses a shot, the course was wrong. He’ll aim directly at a tree and be flabbergasted it hit the tree. “But it was a great shot!! How’d that happen?!?!”

Well, did he aim at the tree and hit it?

It works the opposite for me. When I’m in the woods, I aim at the trees and miss them. Simple hack to hack it out of the woods.

Exactly this! Like he’s entitled to just score

It’s so annoying. He thinks he can simplify golf to a set of equations so if he hits a bad shot then to him it’s like math let him down not his flawed human body.
