Bryson DeChambeau is widely known as a perfectionist, from designing his own clubs and soaking his golf balls in bath salts to detect any manufacturing flaws, and he has revealed the one thing that leaves him “stressed” on the practice range when things don’t go as planned.

The US Open champion’s attention to detail sets him apart from his peers and in an interview with GOLF on the range, DeChambeau confessed that his most frequent mistake is a “chunk” – hitting the ground before the ball, for those unfamiliar with golf jargon.




However, that is not what gets on his nerves the most. Rather than focusing solely on poor contact, DeChambeau revealed that he is more worried about what happens afterwards, specifically the flight of his ball and maintaining an acceptable amount of curve in the air.

A tight draw, the 30-year-old’s stock shot, is sufficient to get him around the course, regardless of whether he hits the ball heavy or thin.

“What gets me stressed is improper curvature,” DeChambeau said. “If I’m thinning or chunking it, I’m OK with it. But if it starts curving too much one way, that’s when I really get stressed. That’s when you’ll see me hit golf balls [on the practice range] for quite a while. So it’s just getting back to basics.”

LIV Golf star DeChambeau shared his unique approach to ensuring his golf balls are perfectly balanced, a technique involving Epsom salts that he employed ahead of his US Open victory at Pinehurst No. 2 last month.
