Bryson DeChambeau opens up about his struggle with injuries
The Mad Scientist played the Masters last week with a series of injuries. Chiefly, the 28-year-old revealed that he suffered from a torn left hip labrum and a hairline fracture. According to the American professional, the injuries occurred two years earlier when he was on a quest to gain mammoth distance after he slipped on the concrete and felt something “pop” in his hand last fall.
Moreover, both the injuries were aggravated at the Saudi International. As a result, he could not play golf and made his comeback at the WGC Dell Match Play. However, news broke out yesterday that Bryson will undergo surgery on his hamate bone in the left hand. Brett Falkoff confirmed the news to GolfDigest.
