DeChambeau said, “I am very blessed to get around this golf course, my first time, I wish it had been a little earlier but look I’m excited to be here and there’s no better place in the world – I love it.”

Bryson DeChambeau is known for his long drives and aggressive attitude to every hole, but he is aware that strong winds can force him to dial it down. He said, “It’s tricky, the wind flipped and went from one direction and did a complete 180, so I need to get comfortable with that and make sure we have our numbers dialled in to play well this week.”

With the 28-year-old ready to make his debut at the home of golf, it will be exciting to see how he lives up to the expectations.

Bryson DeChambeau has struggled to find his form for the 2022 season.  The Scientist won his first major championship, the U.S. Open, in 2020, although he didn’t place higher than 26th in any of the subsequent four majors that year.

The American missed the cut in the 2022 Masters and tied for 56th at the U.S. Open due to injuries and his propensity to using his big-hitting driver off the tee. After getting injured and missing the PGA Championship, the other major event of the year, DeChambeau is ready to make a statement in Scotland after switching to the Saudi-backed LIV Golf International Series.
