During the final round of the U.S. Open in June last year, Bryson DeChambeau shot an incredible clutch shot that was crucial for his win. To everyone's surprise, he shot the ball from the bunker that landed under four feet from the 18th hole. The 2024 U.S Open Champion was lauded for this brilliant shot by the golf world. After the tournament concluded, DeChambeau referred to the shot and said:

Recently, the two-time Major winner's famous shot was commemorated by the installation of a plaque at Pinehurst No.2, by the same bunker where DeChambeau hit the clutch shot. He revisited the golf course himself to install the plaque and celebrate the moment all over again.

Tiger Woods' former coach, Hank Haney, retweeted this post by Crushers GC to celebrate Bryson DeChambeau's achievement at the Major championship.

Haney coached Woods from 2004 to 2010, during which Woods claimed six Major titles among many other PGA Tour events.

Haney also recently shared his opinion on Brandel Chamblee's take on Rory McIlroy's photo after his winning shot at Augusta.

Chamblee claimed that the photo of McIlroy on his knees on the golf course was the greatest picture in sports. However, Hank Haney's opinion differed from this as he expressed that the photo wasn't even close to the greatest sports photos of all time.

In his ninth appearance at the event, he carded a seven-under-par score of 281 to share the T5 spot with Sungjae Im.
