However, did you know that there was a time Woods once had nothing but admiration for the 2020 US Open champion? Moreover, even when the others were criticizing DeChambeau for bringing innovations to golf, the golf legend supported him. 

Tiger Woods loves how Bryson DeChambeau is revolutionizing golf!

“What Bryson has done has been absolutely incredible,” Woods told the press. “We have all been amazed at what he’s been able to do in such a short span of time,” he added.

The golf legend disclosed his thoughts on DeChambeau as the young golfer headed towards winning the 2020 Masters after conquering the US Open title. The golf world, including Woods, was impressed with his long drives and winning a major with a 6-shot lead after bulking up. 

Woods explained that the golfers in his time struggled more as the technology wasn’t as advanced as it is now. “I happened to have speed,” he explained how he averaged 323 yards during the 1997 Masters without the help of technology. “And I happened to hit the ball in the middle of the face.” 

However, even the clubs are optimizable now. And as a science lover, DeChambeau has taken advantage of every technology available to improve his game. “Bryson has put in the time,” the 15-time major champion added. “He’s put in the work.”
