What the 2023 season has been like for Bryson DeChambeau
Bryson DeChambeau had an unremarkable first half of the season. Between February and April 2023, he played five tournaments on LIV Golf, with a 16th-place finish in Orlando as his best result. He also played in the Masters and missed the cut.
But starting in May, the story changed. Since then, DeChambeau has played in seven events at LIV Golf, with two wins, one runner-up finish, and two other top-10s. His worst finish was a tie for 18th at Bedminster.
His consistency during this period has been reflected in the majors. In May, he played in the PGA Championship and finished T4. In June, he finished T20 at the U.S. Open, while in July, he made the cut at The Open, although he finished well off the pace (T60).
Bryson DeChambeau's resurgence in the second half of the season is evident in his rise up the LIV Golf individual leaderboard. Of the 146 points he currently has, only five came between February and April.
That total puts DeChambeau in third place on the individual leaderboard. He has a chance to move into first place, as he is only 24 points behind current leader Cameron Smith.
Of the 36 rounds he has played at LIV Golf, 28 have been under par. Of the eight rounds over par, only two came between May and September. As for majors, DeChambeau has played 14 rounds, six of which have been par or better.
DeChambeau's next commitments for the season are the Jeddah tournament and the Team Championship in Miami. Both will be played in October.
